Key Stage 2 - Educational Books
This list is intended to help in the selection of guided readers at Key Stage Two. It is neither definitive nor exhaustive but is based upon the experience of teachers in Wiltshire and Hampshire. Although we have included dictionaries and thesauruses, we have not suggested any titles for the non-fiction component since our own preference would be to link with topics in Science, Geography, PSME or History. All prices are correct at the time of going to print but may change without notice.
