Note to Librarians, Teachers, and Parents:

Blastoff! Readers are carefully developed by literacy experts

and combine standards-based content with developmentally

appropriate text.

Level 1 provides the most support through repetition of high-

frequency words, light text, predictable sentence patterns, and

strong visual support.

Level 2 offers early readers a bit more challenge through varied

simple sentences, increased text load, and less repetition of high-

frequency words.

Level 3 advances early-uent readers toward uency through

increased text and concept load, less reliance on visuals, longer

sentences, and more literary language.

Level 4 builds reading stamina by providing more text per

page, increased use of punctuation, greater variation in sentence

patterns, and increasingly challenging vocabulary.

Level 5 encourages children to move from learning to read

to reading to learn by providing even more text, varied writing

styles, and less familiar topics.

Whichever book is right for your reader, Blastoff! Readers are the

perfect books to build condence and encourage a love of reading

that will last a lifetime!
