Why Use Serial Books
Increased engagement with favorite series makes the
task of close reading simpler and faster. Repetition of
characters, setting, or plot structure in series stories
often provides additional support for readers who
might otherwise struggle to more deeply explore
author's craft and purpose.
How to Use Serial Books
Several popular series from Reading A-Z can be read in
any order. All serial books are leveled, and most books
in each series are self-contained stories and can be used
for guided or independent reading practice any time.
In other series, such as Charly, authors build on
characters in each book and continue a story across
books in the series to extend analysis of characters and
plot to keep readers coming back.
