Reading (Made Easy) Manual

A Basic English Reader for Beginners

First Philippine Copyright 1999

Revised Edition Copyright 2003

This Manual teaches reading in a simplified manner by exposing the beginning reader to only a few letters of the alphabet and simple words at one time.

The lessons are quite simple. New words in succeeding pages are indicated in bold and large types. The tutor, teacher or reader will therefore know which of the words he must unlock. Thus, while succeeding pages may contain more than five lines or sentences, the reader can know that it is only the new words which he must unlock and then master the page

By the time the reader reaches the end of the manual, he or she will have mastered all the 26 letters of the alphabet and possess a reading vocabulary of over 1,050 words and numbers.

The revised edition is a product of painstaking scrutiny of what were missed or could be improved in the fist edition. The over a dozen more pages, added in the revised edition, introduce the reader to narratives beyond the basic dialogues used in the manual proper.

These adaptations from Aesop's Fables will initiate the reader to the rich entertaining world of words in print..
