Dig!
Alex grabs her shovel and heads for the hillside, certain something special is hiding deep underground. But what will she find as she digs a tunnel down, down, down? A shiny jewel? A tasty morsel? And while she’s busy swinging her pickaxe below, could a nimble thief be sneaking around up on the grass? This decodable reader practises le/al/el/il words such as ‘shovel,’ ‘bundle,’ ‘scramble,’ and ‘sparkle.’
It Won't Stay Down!
The bravest explorer in the whole world has found a village under the full moon - but something is very wrong. The huts are dark, the golem is cracked and tangled in vines, and a see-through cat is watching every move. Where did all the villagers go? And what happens when a defeated zombie simply will not stay down? This decodable reader practises prefixes in words like ‘inspect,’ ‘unpack,’ ‘retreat,’ and ‘return.’
Loop That Troll!
When a shaggy, rumbly troll comes creeping out of the woods, little Nib keeps right on spinning her red wool - but what is she really planning? Can a ball of yarn and a very clever girl outwit a hungry troll big enough to snap a tree? And when her brothers spot a thin red thread winding into the forest, will they follow it in time? This decodable reader practises the ‘ough’ phonogram in words like ’though,’ ’thought,’ ‘rough,’ and ’enough.’
My Villagers Turned Green!
My two villagers wandered off again - and this time, the river swept them straight into a dark cave! What happens when something green and groaning lurches out of the shadows? Can I brew a cure in time, or will my silly neighbours be zombies forever? I only have ingredients for one try, so I’d better not mess this up! This decodable reader practises the ’eigh’ sound in words like ’eight,’ ’neighbours,’ ‘outweighed,’ and ’eighty.’
The Cursed Emerald Part 1
Deep in a Minecraft mine, a miner’s ordinary Tuesday changes forever when a glowing emerald winks from the cave wall.

What is this cursed emerald, and where on earth will it take them next? A decodable reader at Level 85, practising words like “beautiful,” “flickering,” “backwards,” and “reflected.”
