About the KS2 Reading Comprehension Book 2 (Ages 7-11)
Here are our top reasons to buy the KS2 Reading Comprehension Book 2 (Ages 7-11):
- Book 2 of 4 in the Schofield and Sims series, graded by reading ability rather than age
- Extracts from Treasure Island, Robin Hood and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, plus a Sherlock Holmes playscript
- Questions on literal meaning, inference, structure and vocabulary, matched to the National Curriculum for Years 3 to 6

If your child in Years 3 to 6 reads fluently but misses what a text is hinting at, this workbook builds that skill.
Your child reads the words easily, but questions about hints and word meanings still catch them out. This KS2 reading comprehension workbook gives them that practice at home, matched to the reading work they do in class. A confident Year 2 reader can start it early.
Each text comes with a page of questions on literal detail, inference, structure and vocabulary. The Alice in Wonderland extract has eleven of them, and elsewhere in this printed workbook your child meets Treasure Island and a Sherlock Holmes playscript. One non-fiction passage asks why dogs are good for you. Answers are online from Schofield and Sims.
Book 2 sits second in a run of four, graded by reading ability rather than age. So a fluent Year 3 reader may begin here, while an older child who still reads haltingly is better off with Book 1. Close reading like this is what the KS2 SATs ask for in Year 6.
