The Young Heroes series is ideal for reluctant readers aged 9 to 14 with a reading age of 9 to 10 years and will create a link between reading enjoyment and reading success.

Each book follows the structure of a simple novel, with characters, plot, setting, complication and resolution similar to those found in novels written at a higher level. Since each of the nine books has a different set of characters and a stand-alone plot, they can be read in any order.
