Foothills is excited to introduce Rapid Reads, a new line of short novels and non-fiction books for adult readers. In our increasingly fast-paced world we believe there is a need for well-written, well-told books that can be read in one sitting. Rapid Reads are intended for a diverse audience, including ESL students, reluctant readers, adults who struggle with literacy and anyone who wants an high-interest quick read.
Rapid Reads focus first and foremost on strong writing and storytelling. We are committed to providing books that will help adults achieve their literacy goals in an interesting and accessible way. Each title in the Rapid Reads is written between a 2.0 and 4.5 reading level. The plots are contemporary and entertaining, with adult language and themes.
The Sample Set includes the 7 titles below.
"The idea behind Rapid Reads…is so simple it’s hard to believe no other Canadian firm thought of it before: to provide reluctant readers with entertaining subject matter they can connect with…" —Quill & Quire
