PRATHAM BOOKS
CATALOGUE 2011-2012
R
eading a good book is like entering a wonderful
new world. There is just no saying how many gems
children will discover each time they enter this magical
land. Pratham Books welcomes you to step into this
world of books - books for every child, and in many
Indian languages.
This year, you'll see our books classified a bit differently.
We now take into account the child's reading level as an
indicator to picking the right book - so age no longer
matters! More importantly, if you are encouraging
reading in a second language, the levels will help you
choose correctly.
Since Pratham Books is engaged in bringing out enrichment
books rather than pedagogy-driven books, the levels are
just an indicator of the reading ability. We hope young
readers, as well as the people who buy these books for
children will benefit from this change.
Learning to read - level by level.
Beginning to Read/
Read Aloud
For very young children
who are eager to begin
reading and listening to
stories
Learning to Read
For children who
recognize familiar
words and can
read new words
with help
In the past seven years, Pratham Books has published 215
books in upto 11 languages. That’s 1500 books! Apart from
serving primarily as joyful reading material, these affordable
books have made their way into schools and institutions as
supplementary readers. The books come under different
genres - fiction, humour, general knowledge, science,
mathematics, history, art, environment - all complemented
by rich illustrations.
The world of joy is here....please step right in!
