The Eduserve
Adult Literacy Reader Series

The Eduserve Adult Literacy Reader Series has been specially designed for New Zealand adult literacy learners. 

The stories have ADULT CONTEXTS, but CONTROLLED, GRADUATED VOCABULARY. Thus means that your learners will be able to have success upon success as they move up from reader to reader, and WILL NOT be frustrated by encountering complex language before they are ready for it.  

The stories are in 16 point font, with 1.5 line spacing, and are illustrated.
