Read It Yourself: Rex the Big Dinosaur – Level 1

Rex may be a big dinosaur, but he is also kind. The little dinosaurs find him too big and scary to play with, so how can Rex show them he’s a good friend to have around?

Rex the Big Dinosaur is from Early Reader Level 1. It is perfect for children aged 5+ who can use their existing phonics knowledge to practise reading simple words and short sentences with help. Each book uses a small number of frequently repeated words to steadily build reading confidence.

Read It Yourself is a series of modern stories, traditional tales and first reference books written in a simple way for children who are learning to read in English.
Beginner Reader Level 0 is a twelve-step programme to support children who are developing their phonics reading skills. It introduces new letters and sounds in a systematic order.

Levels 1 to 4 are written for children who are moving beyond phonics and gaining reading confidence and fluency. Each book includes simple sentences and high-frequency words, as well as a limited number of new words for essential reading practice.

Each book has been thoroughly checked by educational consultants and includes tips for helping children with their reading, as well as comprehension puzzles and book band information.

With five levels to take children from first phonics to fluent reading, Read It Yourself helps every child on their journey to becoming a confident reader.
