Our books are not only loved by teachers and schools, they are also popular with parents—and of course children! Where many schemes focus on the language used, we put a lot of emphasis on the story. Children don’t want to read a boring story!
Our books conform to the ‘Letters and Sounds’ phases and also the Institute of Education (UK) book banding levels. However, we don’t shoe horn this language into a story. We make sure our stories are written in natural English. This makes them the perfect supplementary read for at home.
Our books are made to be read together. in the Literacy Trust 2023 Study it said that 2 in 5 children would be encouraged to read by having books recommended to them and 1 in 4 said they’d read more if their family and friends talked more about books. Learning to read is truly a shared experience!
Love these books – they were an absolute lifeline when my son was learning to read as he hated school readers.
I have to say we’ve really struggled to find books for our little girl to read independently. Even well-known ones such as Biff, Chip and Kipper don’t seem to start at the real basic level and don’t offer the repetition of words throughout the book you need to learn. Yours are simple with lovely uncomplicated graphics to help children decipher a word they may be unfamiliar with.
Maverick’s Early Readers are attractive books that aim to bring the fun of bedtime stories to learning to read, whether in the classroom or at home – and they certainly succeed.
