The Lexile Framework for Reading (R) is a proprietary approach developed by Metametrics, Inc. to estimate readability for books. A number of school systems use the Lexile system, as does Barnes and Noble, so HIP has partnered with Lexile to provide one more piece of information pertaining to the reading difficulty of several of our novels.

In a general way, our HIP Junior novels have reading levels of Grade 2-3 and are written to be read by students in Grades 4 to 6. This corresponds to Lexiles 350 to 450.

Our HIP Senior  titles have reading levels of Grade 2.8 – 4.5 and are written for students in Grades 6-10. This corresponds to Lexiles 500 to 700.

Our HIP HI-SCHOOL novels have reading levels from Grade 2.5 to 4 and are written for high school students and beyond. Lexile levels range from 400-540.

Our HIP Fantasy novels have reading levels of Grade 3.0 to 3.2 and are appropriate for students in Grades 6 to 10. The Lexile levels are 460-500.

Our HIP Xtreme titles have reading levels from Grade 2.5 to 3.0 and are appropriate for students in Grades 6 to 12 and for adult education.

All books are marked online with their Lexile level. Nontheless, here is a listing of many of our titles with their Lexile levels:
