NEW BOOKS FOR NEW READERS
The Kentucky Humanities Council began New Books for New Readers because Kentucky's
adult literacy students want books that recognize their intelligence and experience
while meeting their need for simplicity in writing. The titles in the series have helped
many adult students open the window on the wonderful world of literacy. At the same time,
the New Books, with their plain language and compelling stories, have found a wider
audience among accomplished readers of all ages who recognize a good read when they see
one.
