Obviously, it is really important for children to keep
developing as readers during these
difficult times, so we wanted to offer our support for you
to ensure this continues to
happen throughout this period of home learning.
We have looked into a number of resources and feel that the
following could be really
useful:
Oxford Owl
This website contains a wide range of ebooks for children to
read online. It is really easy to
navigate and explore the books by age range.
Free Kids Books

This website contains a range of free children’s ebooks –
please open as PDF as they are not
available to view as an online version yet.
BBC Bringing Books to
Life
A range of books read by celebrities to engage children in
reading.
Audible
Audible have a selection of stories that are free to listen
to – these are especially great for
evenings, especially on those days where you may have
totally run out of the energy
required to read your child a bedtime story! Listening to
one of these together may be a
great sleep aid for you both, you never know!
Get Epic!
This is a bank of digital books for children – parents can
sign up for a free 30 day trial.
Love Reading for Kids
https://www.lovereading4kids.co.uk/
A selection of books for children, also with a method to
order recommended books that
come packaged directly to your children.
Booklife
This has many free resources to download, including ebooks,
as well as books that are
available to buy.
BOOKS TO BUY!
The following website is really useful for recommending
books that you can order for your
children to read at home:
https://schoolreadinglist.co.uk/category/reading-lists-for-primary-school-pupils/
It is categorized into year groups, and when you click on a
book, it then takes you to the
Amazon site, where you can then order it if you wish.
Ebooks are brilliant and mean that you have a whole range of
books at the click of a button,
but I’m sure you will agree, there is nothing like receiving
a new book and holding it to
read!
