5 Benefits of Early Reader Series Books

Last Updated on June 17, 2022 by Laura

5 Benefits of Early Reader Series Books

Do you purchase early reader series books for your elementary library? I am a fan of having all kinds of kids book series available for readers. Series books for beginning readers can motivate and excite these young students as they develop a love for reading and build important reading skills. There are many benefits of having easy reader series books in your school library.

Students Get to Know the Characters

Early Reader Series Books Picture Book Series Books

As our young readers work their way through an easy reader series, they get to know characters like Gerald and Piggie, Fly Guy, Fancy Nancy, and Clark the Shark. They learn about their character traits and can even predict how they will react in certain situations. This can build a strong connection for beginning readers!

Repetitive Vocabulary Brings Success

When it comes to early readers, familiarity brings success! Early reader series books are filled with characters, settings, and situations that become familiar. This repetition helps strengthen sight reading skills and fluency in young readers. When they know these words, they build confidence as they tackle new vocabulary too!

Book Series Promote Stamina

When young readers find an early reader book series that they love, they are excited to read ALL the books. This motivates these students to build reading stamina, an important skill as they begin to read for pleasure!

Early Reader Series Books build stamina

Early Reader Series Books Provide Lots of Copies

When you purchase an entire early reader book series for your elementary library, you are providing lots of books for your students to choose from. With over 20 Fly Guy books, and 25 Elephant and Piggie books, and over 30 Fancy Nancy books, your shelves will be stocked for the eager readers who are searching for these gems! Students can read from the same series as their friends and classmates – imagine the fantastic discussions that will develop!

Excited Series Readers are Repeat Customers!

This is the best kind of job security – when our young readers are clamoring for more books! Promoting early reader series books in your elementary library will create a buzz around books and reading. Spread the culture of reading throughout your school community, and you won’t be sorry!

Help Young Readers Find Their Next Favorite Series

It can be hard to keep up on all the early reader book series out there. This Book Series Bundle has book series lists in order for over 30 popular easy reader and picture book series. Also included are my popular book series bookmarks for 13 early reader and picture book series. Print them with the series list on one side and fun quote from the book, author, or publisher on the other.

  • The answer to โ€œWhat comes next?โ€ at your fingertips
  • Help students find their next favorite series
  • Readers can keep track of the series books theyโ€™ve read

Look at the preview and see why this helpful resource will be a welcome addition to your elementary library or classroom!

Here’s to spreading the love of reading!

๐Ÿฉท Swifties of all ages will love this engaging title packed with vibrant photos, fun facts, and interesting tidbits about the ever-popular Taylor Swift. The book includes interactive quizzes that both test fansโ€™ knowledge and invite future fans  to learn more about the starโ€™s life, music, and career. With its colorful design and high-interest content, it's sure to grab the attention of young readers.

๐Ÿฉต If your students are anything like mine, they canโ€™t get enough of Taylor Swift โ€” and this book will definitely feed their fascination. Itโ€™s perfect for skimming, reading cover to cover, sharing with friends, or diving into solo. 

๐Ÿ’œ I highly recommend adding it to your collection, and you might even want to grab more than one copy. Itโ€™s bound to be in high demand!

Thank you to NetGalley and Capstone Press for the opportunity to read a digital review copy of this title. Available 8/1/25
