On Titlewave, go into Classroom & Curriculum, then Guided and Leveled
Reading.   On the left side, under Reading Programs, you will find filters
for F&P and Lexile.  Click Lexile, then you should see BR (Beginning
Reader) to 199.  The titles take some drilling down to get to, but you can
find them.  The key is to search Classroom & Curriculum.

"The simplest way to make sure that we raise literate children is to teach
them to read, and to show them that reading is a pleasurable activity. And
that means, at its simplest, finding books that they enjoy, giving them
access to those books, and letting them read them." -- Gaiman, Neil. "Neil
Gaiman: Why Our Future Depends on Libraries, Reading and Daydreaming." The
Guardian. Guardian News and Media, 15 Oct. 2013.
