Low Level E-Books for ELL

Best of the Reader has 14 titles which come from a newspaper for English Language Learners, the Westcoast Reader.  This is one place that you can find very low level titles.  Each comes with practice activities and a teachers guide.  If you are looking for a quick, easy to use selection, check these out. 
They are free and can be downloaded to read on your Kindle or as a pdf using adobe connect.  I downloaded Amazing Stories.  Once I selected the title, I had to go to downloads on my Kindle Fire to read the book.  It was the icon that looks more like a table of contents at the bottom of the screene.  One of the selections there is downloads. Once you select that you will see titles you have downloaded.  You can then chose Amazon Kindle which pages through like a Kindle book or Adobe Reader where you go down to reach the pages.  Either way was easy.

Examples of stories in this book include: Students and teacher deliver baby, Climber loses nine fingers and People rescue trapped horses.  Exercises are included with answers along with a crossword puzzle.
