Monster Phonics offers one of the most extensive collections of fully decodable books available. From Nursery foundations to Flying Ahead readers and intervention comics, our books make a profound difference to children’s reading journeys.
We have a huge range of books across different stages and collections, all designed to match our phonics progression and to support fluency.
On our website you can click through each stage to see samples. All books are aligned with national Book Bands, making it easy to integrate into your school library. You’ll even find the coloured Book Band dot clearly marked on the back page of every title.
Our collections include:
• Nursery Foundations (Pre-Stage 1) – 20 books — rhymes, songs, traditional tales, and non-fiction to build speaking and listening skills.
• Decodable Fiction (Stages 1–10) – 130 fully decodable fiction titles matched to our phonics progression.
• Decodable Non-Fiction (Stages 1–10) – 50 non-fiction titles covering a wide range of topics, with optional adult-read sections to expand vocabulary.
• Flying Ahead (Stage 11) – 20 books (10 fiction + 10 non-fiction) to build stamina and confidence towards the end of the phonics journey.
• Comics – 38 superhero-themed intervention readers designed for KS2 and later KS1 children needing extra support.
• Meet the Monsters – 10 teacher read-aloud books that introduce each Monster character and their sound.
Decodable texts: why they matter
Decodable texts give children the chance to apply exactly what they’ve learned in class. This reduces guessing, supports accurate blending, and builds fluency. By combining colour coding, phonics focus words, and comprehension questions, our readers make decoding purposeful and engaging.
FAQs on our books
• Can we purchase just one book or title? Yes. Prices typically range from £6.50–£8.50 per title.
• Can I use Monster Phonics alongside another scheme? — Yes. Many schools use Monster Phonics to enhance provision for SEND and EAL learners. For consistency, it works best as a whole-school solution, but it can also complement another core programme.
• Do your books match common book bands? — Yes — our books map against common Book Band systems worldwide. Get in touch with us for a detailed mapping. Our progression is based on the Science of Reading and ensures children move step by step to fluency.
• When does a colour get dropped? — Colour is used as a scaffold when a grapheme is introduced. Once secure, this support is phased out so children gain independence in black-and-white text.
• Are assessments in colour? — No — all assessments are in black and white, reflecting real-world reading.
