Read It Yourself With Ladybird

Eight familiar stories are retold at Level 4 of Ladybird's graded reading scheme, for children reading on their own. Level 4 sits at the top of the series, with longer sentences and a wider vocabulary than the earlier stages, so these books suit a child who can already manage a short story unaided. Titles include Heidi, Pinocchio, The Wizard of Oz and Alice in Wonderland, each shortened but kept recognisable. Comprehension questions and notes for adults close the volumes, which makes the set as useful in a classroom as it is at bedtime. How the set works: • Eight hardcover retellings at Ladybird's fourth reading level • Vocabulary and sentence length graded for independent readers • Comprehension activities and adult guidance in each book • Classic tales including Heidi, Pinocchio and The Wizard of Oz Written for children of roughly five to seven who are reading alone, and for the teachers and parents supporting them, available from Boipoka.
