I used lots of the brilliant Barrington Stokes books for upper KS2 & KS3 (& even sometimes KS4) students who were reluctant readers when I was tutoring. The books have a good story, simple vocabulary and manage to engage with even the most disaffected. I often made simple comprehension exercises, which I have decided to share in case they are of use to anyone else…it took a long time to read and prepare questions for all the books I had! This one is rather ‘girly’, but incredibly popular, written, as it is, by Karen McCombie. Some students progressed to her longer books after reading a few of these simplified texts.
