Ella and Mark Early Reader Book Series

5 Books • 10 Stories • 124 High-Frequency Words

The Ella and Mark book series helps preschool, Kindergarten and Grade 1 children learn to read through a structured series of carefully sequenced stories. Across five books and ten stories, children are gradually introduced to 124 high-frequency words. Each story adds a small number of new words while repeating words from earlier stories to support word recognition, fluency and confidence.

Set against familiar Canadian backdrops, Ella and Mark are siblings who live in Vancouver, British Columbia. Through everyday adventures — from parks and beaches to school, camp, skiing, and soccer — young readers experience relatable stories written in simple, accessible sentence structures.
