Dear Parents/Guardians,
Buona giornata!
“The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.” - Mark Twain
(American author of “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn”)
In the modern times, smart gadgets have taken over books as a silent companion. Most children while away their time either playing games on their mobile phones or going through other applications on their gadgets. It is a sad reality that most children do not take the time anymore to read a good book and truly enjoy reading it.
It is Montessori De Manila’s commitment to give our students the opportunity to explore the world through reading. As one of our top priorities, we are providing students this list of must-reads to develop in them the continued love and appreciation for reading.
The list provided below consists of classics and award-winning literary pieces that the students can choose from. All books marked are highly recommended for book report material. A separate list of poems is also provided as a recommended listing for leisure reading.
To borrow books from the MDM library, please email:
