In the small countryside village of Ivy Hollow, Gemma expected boredom, not ghosts. But when she spots a spooky postman knocking on doors that never open, her curiosity ignites. Determined to unravel the mystery, Gemma delves into the village’s eerie history, uncovering long-forgotten secrets and unfulfilled promises. As she peels back the layers of Ivy Hollow’s past, Gemma finds herself entangled in a haunting tale that refuses to fade away.The titles in the WOW! Fiction series of Hi-Lo books for students aged 9+ include books for reading ages 6–8 years and utilise a range of dyslexia-friendly features to support pupils' reading. The titles in the Lime band have a reading age of 7 years and an interest age of up to 14 years. The WOW! Fiction text is on top of a cream background and incorporates an easy-to-read font and text separated into bite-sized chunks, along with carefully considered letter and paragraph spacing that can reduce visual stress. While these books have instantly appealing characters and gripping storylines, the language and sentence structure are intentionally written so that students who are reading behind their chronological age can succeed in reading them. The whole banded series offers progressively levelled books in Turquoise, Purple, Gold, White, Lime and Brown bands, with 5 books offering plenty of practice at each level to consolidate learning and develop fluency before moving on.
