The 2×2 Reading List is a project of the Texas Library Association created to highlight great books for early readers. A committee of Texas librarians develop a collection of 20 new books recommended for children from age two to grade two to be featured on the reading list each year.
It’s easy to join in the fun – just read or listen to all 20 books reading list at home, at school, or in the library and keep track of your reading by completing a coloring boot. When you finish, return your completed boot to the library and have your photo added to the wall of fame.
