Chapter Books
A chapter book is a story book intended for intermediate readers, generally age 7-10.
Unlike picture books for younger readers, a chapter book tells the story primarily through prose, rather than pictures. Unlike books for older readers, chapter books contain plentiful illustrations. The name refers to the fact that the stories are usually divided into short chapters, which provide children with opportunities to stop and resume reading if their attention spans are not long enough to finish the book in one sitting. Chapter books are usually works of fiction of moderate length and complexity.

I believe we can change the world one letter at a time. Literacy isn't a noun, it's a verb meant to be a call of action~and every child deserves the chance to hold a book in their hands~and understand the power of the words resting in them.
