Publisher's Synopsis
Stimulating and accessible, the titles in the "Livewire" series have been produced in association with The Basic Skills Agency to ensure a non-patronising approach towards the requirements of readers with special needs. They provide teenagers/adult interest level fiction and non-fiction for those with reading ages below 10, or adult students learning English as a second language. Each book is graded at one of the following reading ages: 6-7, 7-8, 8-9 or 9-10. All "Livewire" books are written by qualified Special Needs teachers, and are expertly assessed and subtly colour-coded for the appropriate reading age.
