Thanks for this wonderful list. Do you have suggestions on what books are suitable for someone to transition to chapter books ?

My daughter loved Dr. Seuss books and “Step Into Reading” books before she was interested in chapter books. National Geographic also has a line for beginning readers that piqued her interest since she loves animals.
