About the store
After graduating from teacher training college in 1974, I spent the next 40 years travelling the world teaching English to children and adults in 7 different countries. I now live in Laos where, for the past 10 years, I have been researching, writing, trialing and improving my Word by Word series of illustrated, graded readers for children.
All the books in the series have been extensively researched, trialed, improved and taught to many groups and individuals, including my own children. I am now digitizing the entire series in order to make the series globally available for the first time in both ebook and paperback formats.
I continue to teach, to write and expect to be able to make the complete 12-book series of books available during the course of the next few months.
