Walker Books have introduced a great new range of high-low - high interest level, low reading ability - books that cater for young teenagers who are disenchanted, underconfident readers. In our research, we found both teachers and parents of such children felt that they often regarded a complete novel as inaccessible, whereas a short story was within their capacity and meant success was possible. Consequently Survivor and Paying For It each have a collection of five short, exciting stories by a mixture of new and established writers, each book dealing with a common theme. Whether about a fat new boy facing the class bullies, a foster girl trying to deal with her tragedy (Survivor) or breaking in to a stranger's house (Paying For It), these great stories are bound to hold the attention of the most reluctant reader.
