'I need stories with mature themes, challenging vocabulary and engaging follow-up activities"


Our Short Stories (RA 10-16yrs) and Junior Stories (RA 7-10yrs) collections provide you with texts that are a little longer (600-700 words) than our StoryBytes (400 words) and some subtle storylines and adult themes that will engage your more able readers. Still short enough to get through in one session. Tight, economical, fast paced writing holds the attention of the reader, usually with a twist at the end which provide those aha moments.  

Extensive follow-up activities based on Bloom's Taxonomy provide the opportunity to revisit the text and develop those all important after reading comprehension skills.
