  SERIES INFORMATION


  Striders Phonics Readers are a collection of 32 high-low
  phonically decodable books for readers aged 7+ with a reading
  age of 4 to 6. These expertly levelled consolidation readers are
  perfect for sending home to support classroom teaching, and are exactly
  matched to Little Wandle Rapid Catch-up with focus sounds
  following the same progression, and each set of books revising the
  sounds found in previous sets.




  The series of phonically decodable readers includes diverse and
  inclusive artwork and photography and includes features such as
  chapters and recurring characters (fiction) and contents and headings
  (non-fiction) to be more consistent with what their friends
  and peers are reading. 



   Each book also contains 'how to use the book' notes to help an
  adult support the child's reading along with a character page for
  fiction titles to orient the reader or a contents page for non-fiction
  titles.



  The fiction books are split into four mini-series with reoccurring
  characters while the non-fiction are stand-alone titles with
  a summary page at the end to encourage discussion.
