Summer Reading 2022: Rising K- Class II

Printable List

Rising K-Class II Summer Reading

With summer vacation comes the joy of reading for pleasure.  The K-II Summer Reading List highlights some of our favorite recently published books in a variety of genres and formats, and is not meant to be an exhaustive list of all the high quality literature available. Because of this, reading from this list is not mandatory, and we encourage you to seek out suggestions from friends, teachers, and from your public library and favorite bookstores too. 

We have made books on the list available through Sora, our ebook platform. Your daughter's username (library card number) is available on her Contact Card in the portal. Please e-mail Ms. Chow (achow@brearley.org) with questions. Our public library systems also have a wide range of books available electronically and in print.

For those looking to purchase books, www.bookshop.org supports local bookstores, including the Corner BookstoreThe Lit BarBooks are Magic, and Astoria Bookstore, while offering reasonable prices and shipping directly to your home.
