Boys and girls

The Ladybird Key Words Reading Scheme is based οn these commonly used words. Those used most often in the English language are introduced first-with other words of popular appeal to children. All the Key Words list is covered in the early bοoks, and the later titles use further word lists tο develop full reading fluency. The total number of different words which will be learned in the complete reading scheme is nearly two thousand.
The gradual introduction of these words, frequent repetition and complete ‘carry-over’ from book tο book, will ensure rapid learning.
The full-colour illustrations have been designed to create a desirable attitude towards learning-by making every child eager tο read each title. Thus this attractive reading scheme embraces not only the Iatest findings in word frequency, but also the natural interests and activities of happy children.
Each book contains a list of the new words introduced.
