The Thai Reading Tree
All kids love reading and it’s and easy and fun way to spark their imaginations and develop their Thai language skills from an early age. The “Thai Reading Tree” books are ideal for both Thai first language children and any kids who want to improve their Thai reading and speaking skills.
The books were developed by a team of academics from the Happy Reading (ThaiHealth) that supports the health of children, youth and families and are sponsored by Sook Enterprise and published by Sook Publishing. They are also suitable for young children who start learning the Thai language and can help children learn vocabulary, reading comprehension, and systematic thinking skills. Stories in the books portray the Thai culture, way of life and social diversity. The books were developed and based on the Oxford Reading Tree, Sunshine Classics, and Fountas & Pinnell. Many parents and teachers have confirmed after clear assessments that their children can easily read Thai texts and comprehend the stories and ideas. The books have 5 levels with stories and handbooks forming a collection of 30 books, each level is both age and fluency appropriate and children and progress through each level as their skills improve.
