We have WELL-OVER 400 children's and adult books in our library available to borrow!
They range from Roald Dahl, and Dr. Seuss, through to old copies of "Mad Magazine", Jim Woodring and then to highbrow books on the cell, and even the concept of nothingness.
More structured reading is also available in the form of graded 'readers'. Let's look at these readers below.
Below I have set out some levels and recommended books, but you are also welcome to look at the catalogs and choose your own book!
生徒さん達はLemonLotasの本棚から好きな本を借りて帰ることができます。
