Synopsis

The Read With Me series is a set of new reading books designed to develop the confidence of young readers.

Using a familiar tale, the lively text complements the child's more formal learning. Current developments in the teaching of reading, writing, and speaking guide the text and are behind the range of activities at the end of each book. Each book in this series is aimed at children who can read a little, but who need lively but structured books to help them develop their skills further.

The newly commissioned child-friendly illustrations coupled with the text help add humor to the stories. The text is also positioned on pale colors to help dyslexic readers.

At the end of each book a range of activities reinforce the words learned in the book. A "ready to tell" section encourages children to rearrange episodes from the story and increase confidence by retelling it. Picture dictionary pages illustrate more difficult words and present key words in context.

Synopsis

"Ready to Read" is a series of twelve reading books designed to develop the confidence of young children between the ages of 5 and 7. Using familiar and new tales, the fun texts complement the child's more formal learning. The National Curriculum for Key Stage 1 in reading, writing and speaking guides the text and is behind the range of activities that are at the end of each book. Many of the stories are told in rhyme, and others have rhythmic, rhyming sections. In most books, certain phrases are repeated to encourage the less confident reader. The text is positioned on pale colours to help dyslexic readers. The newly commissioned child-friendly illustrations complement the text, reinforcing the humour found in it. At the end of each book a range of activities encourages the child to think about what they have read, retell it in their own words, and talk about it. It is written by well-respected and published authors.
