Join Thor as he battles with the frost giants, goes fishing for sea serpents, and tries to figure out who has stolen his hammer. Ideal for struggling or reluctant readers, those with EAL and those with dyslexia. Produced in association with reading experts at Catch Up.
Benjamin Hulme-Cross has written over thirty books for struggling readers. Prior to writing full time, Ben worked as English Literature Publisher for an international publishing company, commissioning and editing novels and plays for secondary schools. Ben's favourite thing about being a writer is playing around with ideas for stories in his head and daydreaming, so not much has changed from his childhood.
This series of books have been a big hit with my lower ability
readers and children with EAL. It has been so refreshing to find
high-interest reading books that are filled with great vocabulary
to get our teeth into.

This fabulous Dyslexia friendly mini-series is the perfect
accompaniment to any topic on mythology. The perfect way to extend
children’s knowledge around topics they are learning in class in an
easy to access grown-up looking format. I love that the text is
broken up by pictures and is spaced well, meaning they are more
accessible to those who struggle with larger chunks of text whilst
still looking to all intents and purposes like the friends they are
helping. The fact these books are printed on yellow paper further
increases their accessibility.

Benjamin Hulme-Cross does a great job of concisely retelling each
of these gripping adventures. Aimed at children of 10+ with a
reading age of 8+, these classic stories are compelling reads, full
of action. There are wonderful illustrations throughout each book
from Alessia Trunfio which add to the atmosphere of each story.
