The Orange Book (developing reader) series consists of 30 books divided into three levels of difficulty and takes readers further into the world of Paul and Susan. The books are an invaluable tool for children’s language and reading development.
The texts feature more elaborate episodes and events, longer descriptions and dialogues, links to familiar stories, literary language in a few instances, and out-of-the-ordinary vocabulary that poses a bit of a challenge. They are moderately supported by the illustrations.
The texts are adapted to a young child’s attention span, with a focus on empathy and cooperation. The attractive illustrations support story content.
As well, to facilitate language acquisition and support reading development, an engaging audio narration follows the text, word for word, on each page. Audio track activation is optional, according to child/parent/educator preference.
