Overview
This vibrant 50-book box set from the much-loved Read It Yourself with Ladybird series is a complete graded reading scheme designed to take children from their very first independent words to confident, fluent reading. Spanning four carefully levelled stages, it blends best-loved fairy tales, gentle new stories, favourite characters and topic-based non-fiction on subjects from dinosaurs to outer space. Each title is short, richly illustrated and paced to match a child's growing ability, making this collection the ideal all-in-one reading library for beginner readers, homeschooling parents, teachers and thoughtful gift-givers alike.

About the Books
Read It Yourself with Ladybird is one of the UK's most trusted levelled reading schemes, developed by Ladybird to guide children step by step through the early stages of independent reading. Level 1 introduces short sentences and familiar words through gentle classics like The Ugly Duckling, Goldilocks and The Three Bears and The Enormous Turnip, alongside simple non-fiction such as Dinosaurs and Astronauts. Level 2 builds vocabulary and confidence with stories including The Three Little Pigs, Sleeping Beauty and The Gingerbread Man, plus lively topics like Amazing Aircraft and Emergency Rescue. Level 3 introduces longer sentences and a wider range of grammar, featuring Jack and The Beanstalk, Aladdin and The Jungle Book alongside non-fiction on Sharks, Minibeasts and Ancient Egypt. Level 4 rounds off the scheme with fluent, richly detailed stories such as Peter and The Wolf, The Wizard of Oz and Heidi, paired with fascinating non-fiction covering Rainforests, Our Solar System and Ancient and Imperial China. Every book uses Ladybird's tried-and-tested phased approach, with supportive illustrations, repeated vocabulary and gradually increasing text to build genuine reading confidence rather than simple memorisation. Because the set spans four progressive levels, it grows with the child, meaning parents need not buy a separate scheme as skills develop. It's an ideal foundation library for home, classroom or car journeys, offering hours of purposeful reading practice across fairy tales, adventure stories and non-fiction facts.
