Meet The Beanies

Hi-Lo Reading

High-interest stories are paired with accessible, controlled text, making the series particularly useful for older students who need reading practice without content that feels too young.

Relatable Characters

Adventures centre around a diverse cast of relatable teenage characters designed to reflect the modern world.

Carefully Controlled

Each story only uses letter sounds students have previously learned, with tricky words introduced after they have been taught.

These readers provide text-based practice as students progress through the Phase 2 Letters & Sounds program.

💡 Is Phase 2 the right level? Phase 2 is designed for students learning individual letter sounds. If the reader is still developing general sound awareness, look at Phase 1. If they are already blending sounds and beginning to decode more words, Phase 3 may be the next stage.
