It is for children aged 8 to 9 to read without support. Readerful is a reading library specially designed to motivate children to read more. The series offers contemporary, inclusive books for children from 4 to 11 years, including: • Books for Sharing: picture books to be read aloud by an adult for inspiring reading sessions • Independent Library: fiction, graphic texts, character mini-series and non-fiction for children to read independently • Rise: fully decodable books for older struggling readers to read independently. How Readerful works: • Read aloud the Books for Sharing for magical reading sessions that motivate children to read more. • Then encourage children to choose a book to read by themselves, from Readerful's Independent Library or from Rise. You'll find links between the books' topics, vocabulary, characters and authors - all designed to keep children reading, boost their vocabulary, strengthen their comprehension skills, and deepen their understanding of the world around them.
