</div>
<div>I have a terminology question I'm sure someone here can answer: I work in the youth department of my library, and we have many patrons who ask for books that are on "the easy side of chapter books." To meet this need, we'd like to highlight books for readers who are transitioning from the levelled readers section to the general J FIC books. These books would be identified with a sticker on the spine. </div>
