Charlotte’s Web – E.B. White
《夏洛的網》
這是一本適合所有年齡段閱讀的小說。雖然本書的初衷是寫給英語為母語的孩子們看的，但是很多成年人都表示，這本書是他們的最愛。
This is a lovely novel that all age groups can understand. Aimed at native English speaking children, there are many adults who still say this famous book is their favorite.

Mieko and the Fifth Treasure – Eleanor Coerr
《第五個寶貝》
這本書并不是太有名，推薦它有一點是因為內容不長，只有77頁。本書背景設定在二戰后的長崎，讀者可以從中了解到很多日本文化。
This book is not really so famous, but it is on the recommended book list. What’s great about “Mieko and the Fifth Treasure” is that it’s short. At only 77 pages long, this will be an easy read. Again this book is aimed at young native English speakers, so if you’re learning English, the level won’t be so difficult. This book will keep you interested as you’ll learn many interesting things about Japan and its culture.
The Outsiders – S.E. Hinton
《邊緣小子》
本書主人公是個14歲的少年，故事內容比較現代，里面有很多青少年問題是全世界經歷過青春期的人們都曾經面臨過的問題。文中用詞簡單，句式也簡短易讀。
This short novel is perfect for EFL learners. It has modern themes and typical teenage issues that people around the world have experienced. There are very few cultural notes in this, which means you don’t need much background information. The sentences are short and easy to understand. The vocabulary is also very easy. You should be able to read this book without difficulty.
The House On Mango Street – Sandra Cisneros
《芒果街上的小屋》
這是一本很有趣的書，句式簡短，只有很少的難詞和描述性語言，但是聯系上下文的話也很好理解。本書作者是美籍墨西哥裔女作家，閱讀本書還可以了解另一種文化。
The great thing about “The House On Mango Street” is that it’s an interesting read. It’s written from the point of view of the writer. You can really feel what the protagonist (the main character) feels. The sentences are really short so it’s also easy to understand. There are a few challenging words and a little bit of descriptive language, but you can usually understand them with the context. Another great thing about this is book is that it gives you a deep understanding of a different culture.
Thirteen Reasons Why – Jay Asher
《漢娜的遺言》
故事發生在現代，也就是說語法很簡單。有趣的語法和比較短的篇幅使得本書很易讀。《漢娜的遺言》還曾獲獎并且登上《紐約時報》推薦書單。
This story takes place in the present, which means the writer writes using simple grammar. All sentences are short and the vocabulary is relatively easy. The interesting grammar and short paragraphs make this a quick and easy book for ESL learners. This is an award-winning book and on the NY Times best books list, so it’s worth a read. This book deals with some heavy issues. If you’re looking for something light and happy to read over the summer vacation, you should not read this book.
Peter Pan – J.M. Barrie
《彼得潘》
小飛俠彼得潘的故事，小編就不用多說了。
Almost everyone knows the story of “Peter Pan” which is why this is an easy read. Being familiar with a story already helps the reader to understand the text better. This book is aimed at children, but it continues to be enjoyed by adults around the world too.
The Old Man and the Sea – Ernest Hemmingway
《老人與�！�
著名作家海明威的《老人與�！罚嘈藕芏嘧x者都看過中文版，這次可以挑戰下英文版。有些詞有點難度，好在故事不長。
This is a famous classic. Almost all native English speakers will have read this book at some point in school. So, if you ever find yourself in a conversation about literature and books, this is a good one to talk about. At some points it has a little bit of difficult vocabulary, however, it is short and you won’t have too much trouble being able to finish it.
The Giver – Lois Lowry
《技藝傳授人》
這是一本科幻小說，年改編成了一部電影。故事稍長，但是語法簡單，句子也比較短。
“The Giver” begins in a very interesting way and catches the attention of the readers from the beginning. It has easy-to-understand grammar. Most of the grammar is just past simple and past perfect. All of the sentences are short and there is no confusion in the story. This is a longer book. It’s really easy though, so you’ll finish it quickly.
Number the Stars – Lois Lowry
《細數繁星》
《細數繁星》作者和”The Giver”一樣都是Lois Lowry，不同的是本書是本歷史小說，故事發生在第二次大戰德軍入侵丹麥時期。推薦對戰爭歷史比較了解的人閱讀。
This is a realistic novel. It’s based on history. Unlike other historical literature, it’s easy to understand. If you already know a lot of information about World War II, this might be an interesting book for you. It’s not recommended if you don’t know too much about the World Wars. In this case, you will be focusing on trying to understand the facts too much so you will not enjoy the book as much.
A Wrinkle In Time – Madeline L’engle
《時間的褶皺》
這也是一本有科幻內容的童書，書中句式長短錯落有致，作者對場景的描述也很好，只用簡單的詞就勾勒出來。閱讀時請記得準備好你的單詞本，否則會錯過很多很酷的詞喲。
This book has a mix of shorter and longer sentences. The short sentences allow the readers to relax a little bit more. They also create the scene well and let you know what is happening through simple words. There is a lot of vocabulary to learn. It is a good book if you’ve already got experience reading novels in English. Make sure you have your vocabulary notebook with you, just in case there are any cool words that you’d like to learn. This book has MANY!
