Check out Scholastic's Teacher Book Wizard to help you find books for your students. If you choose the 'BookAlike' (yes, that is one word! LOL) option and pick a topic of interest to them, type it in the search field, select whether you want similar books to be below, at, or above a reading level, click search, and VOILA -- a list of books to choose from. Choose the 'Quick Search' option to find a specific book, an author's works, or book subject by keyword. Select the 'Leveled Search' and get even more specific. There is even an option to choose books by Lexile numbers.

My students love BookAlike. They go on and search for books before our weekly library period, so they are ready when it's time to check out a book. I have also shown parents at open house how to use the quick search so they can find books for home reading time.
