Decodable Readers- Fiction Library

The Decodable Readers - Fiction Library is an ideal resource for early readers, providing a carefully structured set of 72 fiction books designed to align with the Letters and Sounds program. Each story is written with strictly controlled text, ensuring that children are only exposed to letter sounds they have already learned. This progressive series includes 12 books at each Phase level, making it easy for students to build confidence as they gradually master the phonics code. With vibrant illustrations accompanying each story, these decodable readers bring the text to life and help children engage with the content. This library is perfect for reinforcing phonics knowledge in a meaningful context and can also be used alongside other book-banded reading schemes for continued literacy growth.
