It's no mystery that those who can read and write well will have a distinct advantage in our increasingly competitive societies. It is also clear that the task of gaining these viable literacy skills in a second or foreign language poses unique challenges for learners and their teachers. Bridge Books and the Bridge Book Method were designed to provide a foundational approach for dealing with this crucial issue of developing students' literacy skills in languages not normally spoken in their homes.

Bridge Books are not just another set of free-floating readers to add to your collection; they are powerful and versatile literacy tools. They can be used in virtually any second or foreign language instructional setting, including

  • One-on-one Tutoring
  • Small Group Instruction
  • Reading Center Activities
  • Family Literacy Efforts
  • Cross-age and Peer Tutoring

Bridge Books were also designed to meet the goals of many instructional philosophies, including:

  • Transitional Language Programs
  • Bilingual Classroom Instruction
  • Immersion and Dual Immersion

We invite you to experience Bridge Books.
