Penguin Young Readers
Penguin Young Readers feature a traditional numbered levelling system, as well as the Guided Reading levelling system, to ensure quick recognition for educators, parents, and kids. Younger readers figure out new words from picture and context clues while they begin to recognize fiction from non-fiction. Maturing readers can understand different points of view and identify story elements like characters and conflict.
