Dear Shelley
My personal opinion is that you should keep them altogether because with
today's publishing, the graphics are so good that kids do not even have to
be able to read to absorb stuff they want to know from NF ... and if they
want to know more they get an adult to help them or take on the challenge of
trying the text for themselves. MY most avid NF borrowers are my Yr 1
students and they take the most amazing books well beyond their reading
level but not beyond their comprehension level.
If I were to put my "easy" books together, I would have a very thin section
because there is not a lot of NF written for that age group yet that is
available in Australia. I tend to rely on buying from reading schemes to
boost the stock.
