Reading Champion (30 Books Set)

I bought this set of reading books for my child with dyslexia, who is about to go into Year 3, to keep practising reading over the summer holidays. He is on Turquoise book band at school (so about a year behind expected levels), so I started him on the first stage of the pack (Orange) to ease him in, as his dyslexia means that reading is, understandably, a challenge. He really enjoyed the stories and so did I! I’m a primary school teacher, so I am very familiar with the Oxford Reading Tree etc and these were such a nice change!! The stories are actually interesting to read as bedtime stories, so my son was happy to have them read aloud to him to familiarise himself one night and then to read them aloud to me the next day. They are a good length and are nicely illustrated. The books are easier than the book bands at school (at the end of the book, it does say that they are meant for independent reading at the corresponding school book band levels). I am really happy I bought them, as they’ve made a great follow on from the Julia Donaldson Songbirds pack (stages 1-4) that I had previously bought for him. Would really recommend, especially if you have a reluctant or dyslexic reader.

My little boy (5) was struggling with reading. We bought these to help engage him with reading & so far the stories are definitely helping him! They’re set out nicely & use a great variety in of tricky words as well as easy to break down phonetically. I would happily recommend these to parents.

Daughter loves reading so these have been a perfect gift for her to read to us or sit and read by herself. Very easy to pick up and the stories are not very long. 5 year old loves them

Books. Bored me but kids liked them

This was the highest band colour (white) too easy for my 6 year old. However I’d definitely by the next book banding, as they are nicely written and illustrated.
