Taj's Torch follows the empowering journey of a young boy named Taj, who discovers a magical torch that guides him on an enlightening adventure. With the help of his friends and the mystical torch, Taj faces challenges and learns the true meaning of leadership and responsibility. This story is part of Reading Champion, a series carefully linked to book bands to encourage independent reading skills, developed with Dr Sue Bodman and Glen Franklin of UCL Institute of Education (IOE). When Taj receives a torch for his birthday, he initially annoys others by shining it in their faces. However, as he progresses, he learns to use the torch responsibly. Reading Champion offers independent reading books for children to practice and reinforce their developing reading skills. Fantastic, original stories are accompanied by engaging artwork and a reading activity. Each book has been carefully graded so that it can be matched to a child's reading ability, encouraging reading for pleasure.
