PS199 Recommended Reads

Welcome to the PS199 Recommended Reads where our parents and students can discover our community's favorite books, games and enrichment activities. Pick up books from your local library or buy them from our virtual bookstore. Our collaboration with Amazon Associates means every purchase through our bookstore link earns a commission for our PTA toward supporting our school. Join our campaign to nurture our young readers by sharing this page with friends and family. Be sure to check back periodically for new titles and fun activities as we work tirelessly to spread the joy of reading to our community.

A child who reads will be an adult who thinks.

Enrich our own school library with a book donation from our PS199 librarian's wish list.
