Summary:
Stimulating and accessible, the titles in the LIVEWIRE series have been produced in association with The Basic Skills Agency to ensure a non-patronising approach towards the requirements of readers with special needs. They provide teenagers/adult interest level fiction and non-fiction for those with reading ages below 10, or adult students learning English as a second language. Each book is graded at one of the following reading ages: 6–7, 7–8, 8–9 or 9–10.



All LIVEWIRE books are written by qualified Special Needs teachers, and are expertly assessed and subtly colour-coded for the appropriate reading age.





Trapped! by Peter Leigh: Vicky is having a hard time looking after her dad. When she meets Harry, he seems to offer the help she needs, but is Harry really in love with her or does he want something more?

• All the interest, appeal and quality that Livewire is known for.
• Better suited to the needs of teachers and how they need to buy texts.
• Clearly linked to the curriculum.
