This comprehensive box set, featuring a selection of forty books from Young Reading Series One and Two, is perfect for launching your child into the next level of reading. Each volume has been assessed by educators, so you can be sure that your child is getting the good stuff.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis great value box set, containing forty books, will kickstart your child’s interest in reading. The broad selection means that every child can find a book they connect with, while also being broad enough to expand their horizons. It contains everything from Shakespeare to fairy tales, real life histories to amazing adventures, myths and legends to modern day tales. This set combines astonishing variety with great educational value, all at a bargain price.\u003cbr\u003e\nEach book is beautifully illustrated throughout, and the series uses a wide variety of artistic styles, laid out next to the text in an exemplary manner. Each slimline paperback is the perfect weight for little hands, and the keepsake box provides a great way to store the books once they’ve been read - or in anticipation of the next one.\u003cbr\u003e\nWho is it for?\u003cbr\u003e\nThe books included from Series One and Two range from Lexile Level 410L to 790.

They’re aimed at kids who’ve just started reading on their own, and the stories include wide-ranging everyday vocabulary, perfect for developing your child’s language skills.\u003cbr\u003e\nThis series includes many classic fairy tales, including The Billy Goats Gruff and The Emperor’s New Clothes. The selection also includes cool histories, like how the toilet was invented, to short story collections about haunted houses, pirates, witches, robots, and many more.\u003cbr\u003e\nFollowing on from this series is Usborne Young Reading Series Two.
