We encourage parents to assist their students in selecting summer reading titles, where applicable.  Barnes and Noble’s website provides information including Lexile level, book reviews, and age levels for specific titles.  If no age level is specified in the “Product Details” section on the Barnes and Noble site, the book may be focused toward mature readers for various reasons including mature themes or mature content. Likewise, you can always visit our Emmaus High School library online catalog or search for a title using Follet’s Titlewave. If you create a free account, you can view all of the topics and ratings for the title. *Please note that Barnes and Noble is suggested as a resource only, not an endorsement of any specific bookseller.
