Age Range: 3-7 years. Overview. This complete 36-book hardback collection brings together the classic Ladybird Key Words with Peter and Jane reading scheme in one sturdy boxed set. Devised by teacher William Murray, the scheme uses the most frequently occurring words in English to build young readers' confidence step by step. Loved by generations of British families since 1964, it remains one of the most trusted early-reading resources for children learning at home or school.. About the Books. Each hardback volume forms part of a structured, 12-level programme, with three parallel books at every level: an 'a' book that gradually introduces new key words, a 'b' book that provides further practice, and a 'c' book that links reading with early writing and phonics. Every title follows siblings Peter and Jane, and their dog Pat, through everyday adventures at home, school and on holiday, pairing simple text with full-colour illustration. As children progress, vocabulary widens, sentences lengthen, and the typeface gradually reduces, mirroring growing reading skill. The 'look and say' method encourages children to recognise whole words on sight through repetition, a technique that has helped over 80 million children learn to read since the scheme launched. This boxed set contains every book from level 1 through to level 12, taking a beginner reader from their very first words to confident, independent reading. It's ideal for parents wanting a complete, ready-made reading library, grandparents seeking a nostalgic gift, or teachers building a classroom reading corner.. Complete 36-book set covering all 12 levels of the classic Key Words scheme. Durable small-format hardback books, perfect for little hands. Gradual, structured vocabulary building using the proven 'look and say' method. Charming, nostalgic illustrations loved by generations of readers. Excellent value compared to buying each title individually. A trusted, much-loved gift for new readers, birthdays or Christmas. About the Author. The Key Words reading scheme was created by William Murray (1912-1995), a teacher who worked with children who struggled to read using the methods of the day. With educational psychologist Joe McNally, Murray researched the English language to identify the key words making up most everyday reading and writing. First published by Ladybird in 1964, his scheme has sold over 80 million copies worldwide and still helps children learn to read today.. Why You'll Love This Collection. A genuinely complete reading library in one box, this set takes a child from their very first words to fluent, independent reading, using a trusted, proven method loved by parents and teachers across the UK for over sixty years..
