Toxic & Totally Toxic

Middle Years • YEARS 3-8

In response to popular demand Rainbow Reading has
published a series of books, with audio support, specifically
aimed at the interests of males (but which we know also
appeals to a lot of females).

This series is based on the research proven formula of Rainbow Reading but will
not be readily identifiable to students as such.

Key Features:

• Read by young men

• Content that is humorous, risqué (wedgies, details of horrifying habits,
a flying loo and a farting pen to name a few),
informative and ToXic to engage and delight males!

• Main characters that are predominantly male doing “male things”
to interest male readers

• Fiction (including two in comic format) and non-fiction (in “chapters”)

• The tried and true optional activities of Rainbow Reading AND “Make and Do”
activities providing a need to read instructions

• Very high interest content with less emphasis on levelling but deemed suited
to those with reading levels approximately 7-10 years.

• A perfect complement to Rainbow Reading.
