Anne Connole –
I love this series. It made my child a reader. I am a teacher, but still struggled to teach my child, who is dyslexic, to read. He had been on the Reading recovery program and we had made good progress, but he still was not keen to read. As soon as we started on this series, he was hooked. I loved the ‘ambitious’ vocabulary, set out pre-story and the cliff hanger endings The work was fun and accessible and covered many skills, including reading, writing and instruction activities. Best of all, Joseph had caught the reading bug and couldn’t wait until the next week to find out what had happened in the quest. We would predict each week, what was going to happen next and the series made reading and writing fun and accessible for him. I still use this and the Talisman series, in my school and when tutoring privately, as I know how they can transform a struggling reader into a student, who reads for pleasure. The most satisfying feeling, as a parent and teacher, ever.
