Recommended Reading List for Elementary Students

In Pisara Tutorials, our aim is to open the grade school students to the wonderful world of literature to fuel the imagination, which will help the student later on in secondary school and college as his interest in reading is deepened and appreciation for the written word is integrated in his learning process. What better way to spend some freetime than to read a good book?
