Build your child’s reading confidence at home with books at the right level

Get acquainted with Shakespeare’s classic tale of greed and revenge, in this light-hearted and amusing retelling. Bassanio is overjoyed when he finally gets to marry Portia. But, his happiness is short-lived when he is forced to defend his dear friend Antonio, who’s in trouble with an old merchant – intent on getting his pound of flesh.

Sapphire/Band 16 books offer longer reads to develop children's sustained engagement with texts and are more complex syntactically.
