Entertaining and engaging informational topics and fictional storylines are at the core of this comprehensive series.
Our new Red Rocket™ Phonics collection, Decodable Explorers, offers a structured approach to literacy and is aligned with the Science of Reading and Letters & Sounds.
These are scaffolded by strong and effective tools at the Foundation and Pre-Reading levels to build alphabet knowledge and phonemic awareness; the original Alphabet Explorers set is now joined by two new sets, Blend Explorers and Sound Explorers.
All Red Rocket™ Readers titles offer a carefully controlled sequence of challenges throughout the levels to ensure your students progress with confidence and enthusiasm.

Fun!
Strong characters, humour and definable plots combine graduated word-recognition and language development with wonderful stories that children will really enjoy!
