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 5 Reading Comprehension Targeted Question Book - Book 1 (with Answers)

Give your Year 5 child the reading comprehension practice they need with the KS2 English Year 5 Reading Comprehension Targeted Question Book - Book 1 (with Answers). Designed for pupils aged 9–10, this workbook builds the skills they'll rely on throughout Key Stage 2 and beyond, turning tricky inference and retrieval questions into something they can tackle with genuine confidence.

Inside you'll find fifteen carefully chosen texts spanning fiction, non-fiction and poetry—from well-known classics to modern authors—each paired with practice questions that sharpen comprehension step by step. Full answers are included at the back so your child can check their work independently, and there's a handy pupil progress chart online to track improvement over time. Every text covers a diverse range of styles and eras, ensuring your child meets the breadth of reading demanded by the English National Curriculum.

Sample text extract and comprehension questions from the Year 5 workbook — Sample text extract 'The Girl Who Stole an Elephant' with warm-up and inference questions

The result is calmer revision, fewer bedtime battles and a pupil who feels ready rather than rattled. Because the book is published by CGP and aligns with KS2 expectations, you can trust it to cover exactly what Year 5 teachers look for—inference, vocabulary, retrieval and summarising—without overwhelming your child with busywork. This is a physical workbook, so it ships direct to your door and slots straight into homework folders or weekend practice sessions.

Further comprehension questions showing question format and answer space — Example comprehension questions with clear mark allocations and answer lines

Perfect for hardworking families who want a no-fuss way to support Year 5 English at home, this targeted question book delivers structured practice that actually sticks. It works alongside classroom teaching and complements the optional Book 2 if your child is ready for more, but stands alone as a complete first-stage resource.

Fifteen engaging texts covering fiction, non-fiction and poetry across diverse styles and eras
Full answers included at the back for independent self-marking and parent peace of mind
Aligned with the English National Curriculum for Year 5 (ages 9–10)
Pupil progress chart available online to track improvement over time
