OUP's Wrens storybooks are designed for those children who need strongly patterned text and reinforcement of key words. The little books are again accompanied by an extended story booklet, giving a longer version of the story to enable parents and teachers to contextualize the story and increase understanding and enjoyment. Wrens are an old reading scheme and have been updated by OUP. Wrens at Stage 2 have become ORT Patterned Stories at Stage 1+, and Wrens at Stage 3 are Patterned Stories at Stage 2.
