OBS Read the World Basic Textbook for Class 8

Read the World is a series that focusses primarily on reading skill development, as urged by the NEP and the NCF across systems of school education. The series is comprised of—

• Books for levels 1–8 (with answer key)

The Series contains—

• a wide range of themes and text types in print, such as infographics, blogs, news reports and photo essays
• other subjects across curriculum
• many kinds of writing
• a cross section of cultures, contexts, domains and issues

The Basic Books focus on comprehension:

• reading for the main idea
• reading for detail through inference and analysis

In each book, the last eight units are marked ++ , as they are progressively more challenging.

Read the World—because the competent and sensitive readers of today are the thinkers and leaders of   tomorrow.
