Books for early readers

This website has good stories for early readers: http://learnenglishkids.britishcouncil.org/en/short-stories

Jaden loves to watch and listen to a 15 minutes series of short stories every night. I chose the stories which have simple sentences, simple grammars, repeated sentences. I blacklisted those violent story (Little Red Ridding Hood), bad behavior stories (Jack And The Beanstalk, The Greedy Hippo).

After a few weeks, I am going to let Jaden actually read them (he would know daftly the content of the stories by then) . By registering to be their member, you are allowed to print the stories (PDF files). I personally don't like the story format and I don't think it is suitable for early readers. Thus, I'll copy the stories into word files, edit them following "Peter and Jane" format, without illustrations. Besides, I'll refer to those stories to continue writing "Jaden and friends" series too :)


Jaden is currently reading this "book" before his bed time.
