Here's the link I use: renaissancelearning.com

Click on Accelerated Reader. Then go to order quizzes. Enter your country, then it'll take you to screen where you enter the book title.

I love this website! I hope this helps you, too. :)

This seems like a great way to find reading levels....I even found one that went up to 13.2(what grade is that? ) This will help me because I usually can't find the reading level for anything over 7th grade. Thanks for sharing!
