I've been using Exam Ninja books for around five years to help my nine-year-old daughter with her schooling. We buy a set for each year and my daughter works her way through them, a little each day, with my assistance. These are an excellent resource for boosting a child's learning journey and supporting the school curriculum.

About the KS1 English Targeted Question Book: Year 2 Reading Comprehension - Book 1

If your Year 2 child is building their reading skills, the KS1 English Targeted Question Book: Year 2 Reading Comprehension - Book 1 gives them the focused practice they need to tackle texts with confidence. Designed for ages 6–7 and fully matched to the English National Curriculum, this CGP workbook uses engaging fiction, non-fiction and poetry passages to sharpen comprehension and vocabulary—so your child learns to read between the lines and answer questions accurately.

Each page pairs a short, age-appropriate text with carefully graded questions that test retrieval, inference and vocabulary. The book includes full answers at the back, so you can check work together without guesswork. A handy progress chart lets your child track their own improvement, while a dedicated table for recording tricky words turns every challenge into a learning opportunity. Extra challenge questions are sprinkled throughout to stretch confident readers, and CGP's friendly layout keeps motivation high.

By working through this workbook, your child will grow more comfortable unpicking meaning, spotting key details and explaining their answers—skills that underpin success right through primary school. The variety of text types mirrors what they'll meet in class and in assessments, building familiarity and stamina. Because the book is a physical workbook, your child can write directly on the page, reinforcing learning through repeated practice and making it easy to revisit tricky sections.

This book suits any Year 2 pupil who wants to strengthen their reading comprehension at home, whether they're keeping pace with class or aiming to get ahead. It works equally well for short daily bursts or longer weekend sessions, and the clear structure means children can often work independently once you've explained the routine. For continued practice, CGP also publishes a Book 2 and a Stretch edition for the same year group.

  • Engaging fiction, non-fiction and poetry passages matched to Year 2 curriculum expectations
  • Questions covering retrieval, inference and vocabulary, with full answers included at the back
  • Progress chart and tricky-word table to track improvement and build confidence
  • Extra challenge questions throughout to stretch more confident readers
  • Physical workbook format—your child writes answers directly on the page for hands-on learning
