Usborne and Book Banding

Many schools band books by colour to help children choose the right books for their reading ability. For example, the simplest books are Band 1, which is pink, and the top level is Band 11, which is lime. A selection of titles from the Usborne Reading Programme, Usborne Very First Reading and Usborne Beginners have been assessed for book banding.
