eBooks for Reluctant Readers

Badger Learning is a specialist publisher of hi-lo books for struggling and reluctant readers, providing age-appropriate books with engaging storylines and illustrations that pupils enjoy and are successful in reading. We use a number of features known to be dyslexia friendly, such as breaking up text into chunks, simple fonts, wider line spacing and supportive illustrations to help pupils to read our books. All series are shown with interest age, reading age, Accelerated Reader™ Level, Catch Up® Literacy Level and Book Band Level to assist you in finding the right books for the students in your school.

eBook PDFs have proven highly popular in schools during online learning and we’ve had great feedback from teachers: “Hi just wanted to say thank you for this — the kids were all fighting over it. Created a real buzz. I really appreciate the ebooks” Elidh Edwards.

Reluctant readers may respond well to digital formats (more normally associated with technology and gaming) than traditional print. We have a wide range of titles to suit both EAL pupils and struggling readers, including very low reading age books which can be hard to source.

Other benefits of eBooks include:

• They are readily shareable
• Multiple pupils can read the same book at the same time
• They can be read on any device that accepts PDFs
• You can load them onto your school VLE
• You are able to change the screen brightness to reduce visual stress
• The page size can be increased as needed.
