The IL and the BL are very important. Look on the next few pages for more information on these.

11. HPES Library only has LG and MG books
HPES Library only has LG and MG books. When you are looking to buy or check out books for your child, it is important to look at the IL. The AR level or BL only tells the “readability” of the book, not if it is appropriate. So, for example, if your 3rd grade child is able to read a 5.6 book, but the IL is marked MG+, it may very well be best NOT to allow your child to read that book until they are older.

12. If your child’s AR level is 2.0-2.6 this book would be in their range.
The BL is what we call the AR Level of the book. Your child’s teacher will let you know the AR range at which your child should be reading.
If your child’s AR level is this book would be in their range.
