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 KS2 English Year 3 Reading Comprehension Targeted Question Book - Book 2 (with Answers)

KS2 English Year 3 Reading Comprehension Targeted Question Book - Book 2 (with Answers) is designed to give your seven- or eight-year-old even more practice in reading comprehension, building on the foundations laid in Book 1. This CGP workbook is packed with engaging fiction, non-fiction and poetry texts that span classic and modern authors, ensuring your child meets a diverse range of writing styles and eras. Each text is followed by targeted questions that develop the comprehension skills required by the English National Curriculum for Year 3, and full answers are included at the back so you can check progress together at home.

The book's structure makes it easy to fit reading practice into busy weeknight routines: each passage is accompanied by clear, SATs-style questions that help your child understand what they've read, retrieve information confidently, and interpret meaning. Because the texts cover different genres and time periods, your Year 3 pupil will learn to tackle unfamiliar vocabulary and question types without feeling overwhelmed. A pupil progress chart is also available online, helping you spot strengths and pinpoint any areas that need a little extra attention before moving on.

Regular practice with Book 2 means your child will arrive at each school lesson better prepared and more willing to tackle longer passages independently. The variety of question styles mirrors the approach used in national assessments, so comprehension feels less like a test and more like a natural part of reading. With answers provided, you can offer immediate feedback and celebrate every correct response, building the reading confidence that will serve your Year 3 pupil throughout Key Stage 2 and beyond.

This workbook is ideal for parents who want a straightforward, proven way to support Year 3 reading at home. It works equally well as focused weekend revision or as short after-school sessions, and because it follows the same level as Book 1, you can use both together for thorough coverage. For families seeking an extra challenge, CGP also publishes a Stretch Book at this year group, and Books 1 and 2 are available as a money-saving bundle if you prefer to buy both at once.

  • Engaging fiction, non-fiction and poetry texts covering classic and contemporary authors for Year 3 (ages 7–8)
  • Practice questions after every passage to build retrieval, inference and interpretation skills aligned to the English National Curriculum
  • Full answers included at the back, plus an online pupil progress chart to track improvement
  • SATs-style question formats that prepare your child for national assessments without added pressure
  • Works alongside Book 1 and the Stretch Book for flexible, thorough reading comprehension practice at home
