High interest, low-level texts for struggling readers aged 11-14, Go For It is for students who have fallen behind in their reading and have lost the confidence or the desire to pick up a book. This series comprises fiction and non-fiction titles and is designed to encourage reading for fun, interest and information - providing engaging stories and non-fiction texts as well as developing students' reading skills and providing opportunities for group discussion and other kinds of follow-up work. The fiction stories are about teens and the issues confronting them: for example, peer pressure, violence, first loves, 'fitting in' and friendship. The books are in full colour and artwork is in an up-to-date cartoon style which will appeal to the 11-14 age group. Illustrations are by young dynamic artists, who also animate for TV, computer games and music videos.

High interest, low reading level books for struggling readers at Key Stage 3. This pack contains one copy of each of the following titles: What a Wreck!; Between the Lines; Constructing Big Air; Fat Tyres, Intense Surf; Rosh; Top Secret; Annie and Mitch.
