Sixteen short books about sport, school and friendship fill the orange Boyz Rule box, each one finished quickly enough to feel like a win.
Felice Arena and Phil Kettle keep the situations familiar: a match that goes wrong, a dare that gets out of hand, a problem two friends have to sort out between them. Humour carries the plots, and the accessible vocabulary means the collection works for a child reading alone as easily as for an adult reading aloud. Sixteen separate storylines also mean the pile lasts.
What the box holds:
• Sixteen titles in a single orange box
• Sport, school and everyday scrapes as subjects
• Brief chapters aimed at building reading confidence
• A Macmillan English set from Felice Arena and Phil Kettle
Aimed at young readers gaining independence and at parents looking for read-aloud material, available at Boipoka.
