Learning to read is an essential skill for every child. Some children pick it up easily while others struggle. Whatever the ability level of your child, STORYLANDS will help children develop a real interest and joy in reading. These are books that children like to read. They are full of fun, humour and great characters. And they are set in exciting places.

We want children to enjoy the learning-to-read experience, so that they go on to become good readers who like to read. Wonderful books, with excellent stories, that are beautifully brought to life by some of the world's best illustrators. And to make the experience even more motivating, we've added this fully integrated website where children can read each book online, answer a quiz about the book and be rewarded with a fun game that is set within the land they're reading about. It's all about getting kids excited by reading and motivated to want to read more and more everyday!

Each STORYLAND has 30 fiction books with reading levels from Kindergarten to Year 2.

The two STORYLANDS available now are Clinker Castle and Pirate Cove.

In each set, Book 1 is the easiest to read and book 30 is the most advanced book in the set. The 30 books are divided into three broad reading levels with 10 books at each level.
