To ensure accessibility and readability, Hodder & Stoughton have worked with The Basic Skills Agency on "Livewire" - a series of reading material with a teenage or adult interest level for those with reading ages below 10 or for adult students learning English as a second or foreign language. It offers teenagers and adults appropriate fiction and non-fiction which is graded at reading ages 6-7, 7-8, 8-9, and 9-10. This non-fiction section, "Livewire Investigates" provides accounts of careers, hobbies, sports and even extreme sports, intended for use in the Literacy Hour to bridge the gap between NC levels 2/3 and level 4. It is designed to be accessible in layout and content and offers facts and photographs to sustain the interest of the beginner reader.
