Our top five series for young English-language learners

Our Felt Flaps series is an ideal pick for young English-language learners. Each spread features the familiar ‘Where’s x? Here he/she is!’ refrain, which aids learning through its use of repetition. With lots of friendly characters to find behind colourful felt flaps in each title, this series not only helps babies and toddlers learn, but is lots and lots of fun!

Each board book in our Sing Along series comes with a free instrumental and vocal version of the featured nursery rhyme. The bright illustrations and memorable melodies make this series ideal for English-language learners, while its robust board sliders encourage interaction.

These simple, engaging and funny stories reflect the ups – and downs – of toddler life. Short sentences and simple vocabulary, coupled with familiar situations and emotions, makes this series perfect for English-language learners!

This first words series is ideal for helping to build vocabulary and confidence with the English language. Every spread has flaps to lift, encouraging kids to engage more deeply with the words and pictures on the page. With its large, easy-to-read format, and simple words arranged by theme, this is a perfect series for those learning English.

And now for something to suit slightly older children! Our Princess Minna series is full of short, funny stories accompanied by colourful illustrations. These are great for English-language learners who have moved past picture books, but may not be ready yet for the challenge of chapter books. The visual component supports children’s understanding of the story, and the vocabulary used is more diverse, helping readers to expand their knowledge.
