Other children’s resources

Big storytelling collection books

Collections of big format storytelling books are available. They have a larger font size and pictures to support children with visual impairment, or can be used in larger group settings. They have a range of stories suitable for 2-6-year-olds.

Dyslexia-friendly books

Books are stocked to meet all reading levels and ability ages, however, specific books from publishers such as Barrington Stokes are in stock to support children who have difficulty reading from mainstream titles. Stories are pitched at the child’s real age rather than their reading age.

Summer Reading Challenge

This is an annual themed summer reading challenge for children between the ages of 4-12 years old.

The aim is to read up to six books, collecting prizes along the way during the summer holidays. With support from staff, super-sized materials are provided for children who are visually impaired, or for children with learning disabilities or dyslexia.
