Every child can be a reader with Barrington Stoke For 25 years we’ve been pioneering super-readable, dyslexia‑friendly fiction to help every child become a reader.

I’ve always admired the team at Barrington Stoke, their passion for stories and for making stories accessible to children for whom reading is a challenge

Our top-quality shorter novels by big-name, bestselling writers promote reading for pleasure and are ideal for: •

struggling readers

reluctant readers

confident readers looking for a quality short read

SIR MICHAEL MORPURGO

We hope you enjoy browsing our titles; please do contact us if we can help with any further information.

Key features of a Barrington Stoke book •

Award-winning authors ensure well-written texts that encourage discussion

Expert editing ensures a smoother read that still challenges the reader

High-interest / low-ability stories with short, sharp, unpatronising content matched to the age of the reader not their reading level

Short chapters provide plenty of rest breaks and a more rewarding read

Our unique dyslexia-friendly font makes reading easier for everyone

Attractive illustrations aid comprehension and break up the text

Off-white, heavier paper helps reduce visual stress

Great design and enticing covers make our books instantly engaging and free of stigma

Accessible layouts and spacing stop the page from becoming overcrowded
