One of the websites I follow is Book Riot. It is a great resource for books, not only for adults but for children and young adults. This morning they posted a list of books for early and middle grade readers from an animal's point of view. Most of the ones on the early reader list are new to me except for The Story of Diva and Flea. On the middle grade list is one of this blog's favorites: The One And Only Ivan. Note that several of these books are the first of a series. Series are great for reluctant readers. If they like the first book, they will often want to read the entire series.
Early Readers
The Sonoma County Library has ten copies. This is the first of a series. There is no AR for any book in this series.
The Sonoma County Library has twenty-nine copies. The AR is 4.6.
The Sonoma County Library has seven copies. This is the first in a series and the AR is 2.6.
The Sonoma County Library has seven copies. This is part of The Park Pals adventure series. The AR is 4.7.

Middle Grade
This book will be published on February 9, 2016.
The Sonoma County Library has four copies. The AR is 4.9.
The Sonoma County Library has one copy. The AR is 4.9.
The Sonoma County Library has thirty-one copies. The AR is 3.6.
The Sonoma County Library has three copies. The AR is 5.1.
The Sonoma County Library has eleven copies. The AR is 3.7.
The Sonoma County Library has eight copies. This the first book of a series. The AR is 4.5.
You may have noticed that some of the early readers have as high or higher reading levels (according to the Accelerated Reader rankings) than the middle grade books. In this article the categories are according to interest. One of my first grade granddaughters has read The Story of Diva and Flea; the only word trouble she had was with the very few French words in the story.
