    Read Alike Bookmarks for Kids!

    A good bookmark doesn't just help you remember where you left off reading. It also doesn't just help you preserve pages from the viciousness of dog-earing or spines from the indignity of being placed open and face down.

    A good bookmark–the perfect bookmark–tells you what to read next! That's why parents, librarians, teachers, as well as kids will love these read-alike bookmarks!

    These printable bookmarks are based on our Read Alike Book List series. I turned the top sixteen most popular lists into bookmarks with five "read next" recommendations.

    Each read alike bookmark boasts that the child is currently reading a well loved book and declares that they will read the following five books next. None of this wishy-washy, "can" read next stuff, right? These are books they will read next!

    Five book recommendations is an inspiring number without being too overwhelming for more reluctant readers or slow readers. Ambitious kids will want to refer to our read alike book lists for ten or more read alike book recommendations.

    Make the Bookmarks!

    Instructions:

    1. Request the printable in the form below that says "Get the 16 Bookmark Printable"
    2. Head over to your email to get the printable and print it out.
    3. We recommend using heavy paper or card stock, but standard white paper will work just fine.
    4. Cut out the bookmark(s) that you want to use.
    5. Get reading!

      Hi Erica, Love your blog. I write picture books and early chapter books. Would it be possible to mail you some books for your consideration and review? Where shall I mail them?
      Thank you!
      Robin

        Hi Robin, Thanks for your interest. My favorite way to get books to read for consideration in a book list is to get them from the library! I'm just a one woman show and can't review to a schedule so if I do it this way I can add books to lists, or share on Instagram as the theme comes up. I hope this makes sense. I've been to your website just now and shall take a look! - Erica
