lower reading level students<br />
- manufactured to withstand heavy<br />
circulation and repetitive use<br />
A bridge to reading independence<br />
Educational studies show that Large Print books have a place alongside the regular<br />
print books in any classroom or library. They are a necessary ingredient in a successful<br />
reading program <strong>for</strong> students of all ages.<br />
Research and action studies confirm that Large Print improves reading speed and<br />
comprehension and is an extremely effective alternative tool <strong>for</strong> students reading below<br />
grade level. The larger font and additional white space between lines slow the eye and<br />
increase the care that students take with the text. Because Large Print books appeal to<br />
struggling readers they are more willing to pick up books and read, often encouraging<br />
their classmates to do the same.<br />

that documents the positive impact that Large Print has on struggling readers at<br />

ABOUT THORNDIKE PRESS ® LARGE PRINT BOOKS<br />
Thorndike Press has been publishing books <strong>for</strong> middle and young adult readers since<br />
1999. Our books are reprints of popular and classic regular-print books. Thus the<br />
content holds the reader’s attention and promotes independence and growth in reading.<br />
In turn, vocabulary and reading independence increase because the reader is not limited<br />
to lower level reading materials.<br />
- proven to help increase their reading comprehension<br />
* Hundreds<br />
of bestselling<br />
and award-winning<br />
titles to choose from:<br />

THORNDIKE PRESS ® LARGE PRINT BOOKS ARE:<br />
• The same size or smaller than regular-print hardcover books<br />
• Complete and unabridged<br />
• Created with the same art as the original hardcover or softcover book<br />
• Designed so that the word “Large Print” does not appear on the outside of the book<br />
• 100% guaranteed<br />
The difference between publishing’s standard-print type size and Thorndike’s 16-point<br />
type size is that Large Print helps struggling and reluctant readers develop the skills they<br />
need to enable them to:<br />
• Recognize words accurately • Read fluently<br />
• Comprehend what they are reading<br />

PILOT PROGRAM<br />
The purpose of our Pilot Program(s) was to gather reading scores/statistics <strong>for</strong> middle or<br />
high school struggling readers or ESL/ELL learners who use Large Print books <strong>for</strong> their<br />
independent reading, in their curriculum, or as part of their reading program(s).<br />
We did not ask <strong>for</strong> any personal in<strong>for</strong>mation on participants — just their beginning, middle<br />
and year-end reading metrics from any recognized/endorsed reading tests.<br />
To learn more about the educational research found on ERIC and in journals concerning<br />

(10 Hardcovers <strong>for</strong> $179.00)<br />
Librarians and teachers know that not all students are good<br />
readers or even care to read. For these students reading can<br />
be not only a chore, but a painful experience. This collection<br />
was created with these students in mind. The books will<br />
stimulate high interest but are written <strong>for</strong> a lower reading<br />
level. (RL: 3–5 IL: Middle and High School)<br />

TESTIMONIALS<br />
“The students are so excited . . . they beg <strong>for</strong><br />
independent reading time! They read <strong>for</strong> 60<br />
minutes straight when normal reading time<br />
was 40 minutes.”<br />

Rosemary Pillsbury, Language Arts Teacher<br />
Mount View High School, ME<br />
“Some qualitative feedback from the ESE<br />
classroom: (1) the confidence has gone from<br />
0 to 100+; (2) increases in both fluency and<br />
motivation were noted; (3) the students are<br />
reading larger portions of the text at one<br />
time; and (4) drawing vocabulary from the<br />
text with thesaurus and dictionary follow up<br />
is more easily implemented.”<br />
Anne Marie Juola-Rushton,<br />
Blackburn Elementary, FL<br />
“I had a kid in on Friday who took one look<br />
at the large print books and said, ‘Wow, look<br />
at all of these and I can read them. I have been<br />
wanting to read all these titles, but I was never<br />
able to because they were too hard. Now<br />
I can read all of them!’ I thought this was<br />
just classic. It shows how psychological the<br />
size of the print is. These are the exact same<br />
books as I have on the shelf in regular print,<br />
but because of the size of print they think<br />
they are so much easier. I had another student<br />
comment on how much faster she can now<br />
read books.”<br />
Sherri Platt<br />
Mead Middle School<br />
“Students who used to go to great lengths<br />
to avoid reading are now excited about what<br />
books have to offer, and they are coming<br />
back to the library week after week to check<br />
out more of them. The large print <strong>for</strong>mat<br />
has made an unbelievable difference in our<br />
students’ ability to scan the words on the<br />
page . . .”<br />
Brenda Loew, Media Specialist<br />
Carlyle High School, IL<br />
“Thank you Thorndike Press <strong>for</strong> providing<br />
large print books <strong>for</strong> juvenile readers. Not<br />
only do my visually handicapped students<br />
require these books; but my students who<br />
have reading difficulties love these books as<br />
well! I’m hoping you will continue to expand<br />
your titles; you are fulfilling a desperate need<br />
<strong>for</strong> elementary and middle school libraries.”<br />
Betty Wells, Librarian<br />
Inman Elementary School, MI<br />

“The large print books help students with<br />
reading difficulty to read more advanced<br />
books. The large print makes the books<br />
appear easier to read. The newest titles that<br />
we ordered from Thorndike have covers that<br />
appeal to our middle school readers.”<br />
Millie Runkel, Librarian<br />
Stuarts Draft Middle School, VA<br />
“The children at our school favor large print<br />
books because they are easier to read which<br />
makes the book much more enjoyable. The<br />
Harry Potter books that you sent us are<br />
already in use. The first day they were on<br />
the shelf they were all checked out within an<br />
hour. Even though the books have more pages,<br />
the students prefer the large print editions. I<br />
have found that when a student has trouble<br />
reading <strong>for</strong> any reason, a large print edition<br />
can be a viable solution.”<br />
Kathy Smith<br />
Rothchild Middle School, GA<br />
“Although I bought large print books to help<br />
the students with vision problems, all the<br />
students want them. It took me a moment to<br />
understand what was going on when I had so<br />
many requests <strong>for</strong> ‘books with big words.’ ”<br />
Sandy<br />
Clinton Middle School, TN<br />
“All students, not only the ones I had<br />
originally planned <strong>for</strong> this program, are liking<br />
the bigger font! I thought only the kids I had<br />
planned <strong>for</strong> this program would need them,<br />
but I was wrong. We are a Title 1 school,<br />
many English as second language learners,<br />
and/or lower level students and surprisingly,<br />
they all like these books!”<br />
Heather McBride<br />
La Cumbre Junior High School,<br />
Santa Barbara, CA<br />
“Many of my students are reading a few<br />
years below grade level and though the<br />
larger print books may be at a higher level,<br />
the students don’t feel put off by them<br />
because the print is reminiscent of readers<br />
from their time in elementary school. They<br />
are less intimidating if you will.”<br />
Terry Morin<br />
Language Arts Teacher, ME<br />
“As an illustrator, and now author, of<br />
children’s books, I have the opportunity to<br />
create something valuable <strong>for</strong> young readers.<br />
I have also been very <strong>for</strong>tunate to be the<br />
illustrator <strong>for</strong> the American version of the<br />
Harry Potter books. It is an exciting and<br />
fulfilling career <strong>for</strong> me as I witness children of<br />
all ages come together and get excited about<br />
reading. However, reading is not as easy <strong>for</strong><br />
everyone. Just recently I had the opportunity<br />
to do a book signing in conjunction with<br />
Thorndike Press Large Print <strong>Books</strong>. It was<br />
there that I realized what an important role<br />
large print books play in serving those who<br />
struggle with reading. It was brought to my<br />
attention as I met with several librarians<br />
and teachers, all with stories of readers who<br />
fight hard to get through their books, from<br />
page to page. As a child I too struggled with<br />
reading. Just focusing on each word was a<br />
challenge I wasn’t always up to. I wish I could<br />
have had more options available, like large<br />
print books. I know they would have made a<br />
difference <strong>for</strong> me. I no longer think of large<br />
print books just <strong>for</strong> the elderly and those<br />
with failing vision, but rather a tool to help<br />
those who, <strong>for</strong> whatever reason, whatever age,<br />
struggle with reading. I would encourage all<br />
schools, libraries and book stores to offer a<br />
wider variety and a more bountiful selection<br />
of large print books, so that EVERYONE can<br />
experience the enjoyment of reading, and<br />
benefit from all it can bring.”<br />

DEVELOP A SUCCESSFUL PROGRAM USING LARGE PRINT BOOKS<br />
Incorporate these “best practices” to help your library develop a successful program using<br />
Large Print <strong>for</strong> middle and young adult readers.<br />
INTER-SHELVING<br />
Organize Large Print titles <strong>for</strong> struggling readers<br />
in a way that encourages com<strong>for</strong>table interactions<br />
with books.<br />
• Librarians who inter-shelve Large Print<br />
books with non-Large Print books have<br />
reported over a 50% increase in circulation<br />
of those titles.<br />
Weiss, M.J. (1978). found that at least one<br />
aspect of <strong>for</strong>mat — font size or style — was<br />
an important factor <strong>for</strong> 70% of the children<br />
when making book selections. Statements by<br />
the children regarding font revealed that they<br />
based their book selections on the legibility of<br />
the text, the print being a size that did not strain<br />
their eyes. Children’s preferences in tradebook<br />
<strong>for</strong>mat (Report No. CS-005-505). East Lansing,<br />
MI: National Center <strong>for</strong> Research on Teacher<br />
<strong>Learning</strong>. (ERIC Document Reproduction Service<br />
No. ED188139).<br />
DISPLAYS<br />
Use Large Print in book displays that invite<br />
readers to touch, take, examine and read.<br />
• Librarians who incorporate Large Print books<br />
in displays have reported via surveys on average<br />
a 65% increase in circulation <strong>for</strong> the displayed<br />
books.<br />
SUMMER READING PROGRAMS<br />
Librarians who offer Large Print books as part<br />
of their summer reading programs help readers<br />
continue to make gains in reading skills during<br />
summer breaks.<br />
*à<br />
* Posters and bookmarks are<br />
• Librarians who offer Large Print books as<br />
part of their summer reading programs have<br />
reported that significantly more patrons will<br />
opt to check out a book — if it is in Large<br />
Print — than in the past.<br />
A study conducted by Elizabeth Lowe reported at<br />
an International Reading Association Workshop<br />
in 2003 found that students improved between<br />
41% and 70% on their SRA Reading scores after<br />
one year of large print remediation, gains that<br />
continued during summer breaks, unlike the<br />
typical loss from regular print books.<br />
