Tips for choosing a book that's "just right for you"
(if the DRA level is not available):
1. Choose a book that looks interesting.
2. Open the book to any page.
3. Start reading the page.
4. Hold up one finger for every word that you have a hard time reading.
0-1 Finger - book is too EASY
2-3 Fingers - the book is at the INTEREST level
4 Fingers - the book is at the CHALLENGE level
5 Fingers - the book is at the FRUSTRATION level and
not a good choice for now
