To ensure accessibility and readability, Hodder & Stoughton have worked with The Basic Skills Agency on "Livewire" - a series of reading material with a teenage or adult interest level for those with reading ages below 10 or for adult students learning English as a second or foreign language. It offers teenagers and adults appropriate fiction and non-fiction which is graded at reading ages 6-7, 7-8, 8-9, and 9-10. This section, "Livewire Youth Fiction" forms part of the series and offers stories at the lower reading age of 6-7 only. Designed to have less text on a page, these stories are starters for older students just beginning to read.
