“The simple, funny stories in this book series have words
and pictures that help children succeed at reading — even the
very first time. Every book includes advice to help you
guide and support new readers.”

WHO are
brand-new readers?
Brand-new readers are children in pre-K to first grade
who are just learning to read and who will gain
confidence when they succeed the first time they try.
“The Brand New Readers® series is one of the
best out there to motivate new readers.”
— LUCY CALKINS

HOW do Brand New Readers® work?
Simple design so that a child can easily tell where
to start and stop reading and
can follow each sentence
to its end without
interruption
Appealing characters
and funny stories
Short, patterned sentences
that make it easy to
recognize new words
Language that flows
naturally, letting children
draw on the way they speak to read words they see
Monkey illustrations © 2000 by Scott Nash
Illustrations so clear that
children can guess the words
by looking at the pictures
Consistent placement
of print that, like repetitive
or rhythmic language,
helps a child predict
new words
PLUS!
Each Brand New Reader has a “story introduction”
for you to read to your students before they read
the book on their own and simple, common-sense
suggestions for parents so they can help their
brand-new readers at home.
VOCABULARY
FLUENCY
COMPREHENSION
Varied use of language
that addresses many
different topics, characters,
and settings, complemented
by clear and detailed
illustrations, provides
the needed support for
developing vocabulary.
Repeated patterns and a
variety of punctuation and
dialogue make Brand New
Readers ideal for increasing
fluency.
Colorful illustrations,
introductions for each story,
and plots, conflicts, and
resolutions familiar to young
children aid comprehension.
About David Martin, chief consultant and
primary creator of the Brand New Readers® series
David Martin was a teacher for eighteen years and an early literacy support specialist for the Vermont Department of
Education. It was while teaching reading to young children that he began to understand the needs of brand-new readers
and began to create short, simple books for his students. These led to the development of the Brand New Readers series.
Brand New Readers® are available as:
