What is an easy reader?

Easy readers are good for beginning readers. They can help motivate beginning readers by giving them a whole book that they can read by themselves.

An easy reader is a short book with a small amount of text and large illustrations. The illustrations are designed to give clues to what the text says.

Here is an example of some pages from an easy reader.

• Easy reader page

• Concept module: easy reader
• In overview module: Glossary (Literacy): E
• In modular book: Glossary of literacy terms
• In document collection: Reference materials
• In bookshelf: Literacy
