Synopsis

When urban explorer, Raheem, is arrested for trespass, he panics about being locked in a cell - he hates small spaces. But something far worse is happening beyond the police station walls, and the cell might be the only thing keeping him alive.

Between the Lines perfectly combines visual appeal with carefully chosen content that is both compelling and relevant for teenagers and young adults. The stories feature mature and serious themes, touching on abandonment, addiction, grief, love, war and dystopian futures. With a realistic word count of 5000-6000, imaginative storylines and line spacing to create bite-sized chunks of text, these books are ideal for struggling readers or more able readers who enjoy a quick read.

This hi-lo series for struggling and reluctant readers has been written for children aged between 12 and 15 years, whose current reading age is between 8 and 9 years. These age-appropriate short reads range from 44 to 54 pages and are written by talented authors writing stories with relatable characters.  They incorporate a large font size and text separated into bite-sized chunks, along with carefully considered letter and paragraph spacing that can reduce visual stress. The series has plenty of practice at one level, allowing consolidation of learning before moving on to more challenging reads.

À propos de l'auteur

She likes to explore different genres in her writing, from funny and spooky middle grade stories, to contemporary and realistic YA fiction. Jenni has written four titles for Badger Learning: Wanted from their bone-chilling series Papercuts II, Stop and Torn from their Two Sides series, and The Cell from their Between the Lines II series.
