Reluctant Readers

While in the ALA Exhibit hall, I was attracted to a booth with colorful books at the Orca Book Publishers. They specialize in books for reluctant readers. There are three groupings:

• Orca Currents Fiction for Middle-School reluctant readers (34 titles)
• Orca Soundings Fiction for Reluctant Teen Readers (57 titles)
• Orca Sports High-interest sports novels for ages 10 & up (22 titles)

The books are very attractive and look like any other paperback a teen would read. The titles in the Soundings collection are Accelerated Reader selections. The Soundings and Currents collections also have free teachers’ guides.

If you have been looking for books to peak the interest of your reluctant readers check out these titles at Orca Book Publishers.
