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. • ideal for reluctant and struggling readers.
