Welcome to our blog

How can teachers encourage parents and carers to engage in reading with their child? Here are some different ideas and tips for promoting reading - whether you’re looking to host an event, offer a few words of advice or create a positive collaborative reading ethos, there may be an idea for you…

To celebrate World Book Day, we asked members of the team to tell us which stories or book characters inspired them as a child. Meet the team and their literary heroes.

This term, we've got a simple mission. We want to ensure that you can access high-quality reading resources for your pupils at the very best value. Order by the 31st December 2018 and we'll match fund any Reading Planet order, pound for pound.

Halloween lesson plans, books and poems to celebrate with your little monsters.

We're super excited to tell you all about the launch of the Rising Stars Reading Planet Summer Challenge!

In this blog we'll tell you all about how you and your child can get involved and be in with a chance of winning a £50 book voucher. We'll also take a look at why and how you should be encouraging your child to read for pleasure.

To coincide with the launch of our Summer Sale we're also giving away a free e-copy of 'The Summer Fete', a Rising Stars Reading Planet book.

It’s the start of the school holidays and time for the summer fete! The class are looking forward to running their stalls, but what happens when things start to go wrong?

It's the start of the World Cup! Could this be England's year? You might not be getting your hopes up but the team should at least get to their matches on time, unlike Tess in this latest Comet Street Kids free eBook. 

Author of our English for the More Able series, Vicky Burrill, picks out 10 books to engage and inspire your students.

Part two of our poetry week activities. This time we're having fun with animal poems and spooky poems!
