Each book on our 2020 Great Words, Great Works reading list is given a "Bee" rating based
on the challenge the book will likely provide to the reader. Books rated "One Bee" are Sreat for
emerging readers, and the level of challenge progresses through "Two Bee' and "Three Bee." The
Scripps National Spelling Bee selects Great Words, Great Works titles annually for the richness of
their vocabulary and for their stories' ability to spark the intellect and the imagination. All words on
the 2020 School Spelling Bee Study List may be found in the pages of these books. Happy readingl
