Oxford Read and Imagine is an excellent choice for Spanish children learning English as a second language because it offers carefully graded stories that match their language level, helping them build confidence step by step. The books combine engaging fictional adventures with clear vocabulary support, illustrations, and follow-up activities that reinforce comprehension and encourage speaking, reading, and critical thinking skills. The recurring characters and imaginative plots keep children motivated, while the integrated audio exposure supports pronunciation and listening development. Overall, the series makes learning English meaningful, structured, and enjoyable for young Spanish learners.
We have several of these books, which are organized by English level. The most interesting thing is that they include a code to download the audio for each book from the website. This helps children learn the correct pronunciation of words.
In addition, at the end of the book there is a comprehension section with simple questions to check whether the child has understood the story.
