The second level of a series of controlled vocabulary readers for
children at the end of their first school year. The Level 2 books use 20
tricky words, and 12 pages of text with typically 2 sentences per page
(where Level 1 had 11 tricky words, 8 pages of text and just 1 sentence
per page). However the books have just the first 42 letter sounds
introduced in Jolly Phonics, with none of the alternative spellings of
vowels (so 'ai' as in rain, but not 'a-e' as in 'make', or 'ay' as in
'day'). The Level 2 books continue the high interest level of the books
in Level 1, with the same three series: Inky Mouse and Friends, General
Fiction (including some classics) and Nonfiction.
