Collection: Symbolised Books

Let’s clear something up: literacy isn't just about "sounding out" words.

For a child with autism, a language delay, or complex communication needs, a standard page of text can feel like a coded message they didn't get the key for. That’s where Symbolised Books change the game. By placing visual icons (often the industry-standard Widgit symbols) directly above the text, we’re giving readers a visual "anchor" for every word. It’s not just about reading; it’s about understanding—sometimes for the very first time.

A Multi-Sensory Bridge to the Classics The Every Cherry range is the star of this collection. Why? Because they refused to believe that classic literature was "too hard" for the SEND community. From Frankenstein to King Lear, these are the same epic plots and characters we all love, just re-engineered with symbols and simplified prose. It’s about dignity in reading—allowing a 10-year-old to read the same stories as their peers, just in a format that speaks their language.

The Bottom Line? Symbols aren't a "lower" way of reading—they're a different way of seeing. Grab a symbolised bundle, hit play on the signing video, and watch as the world of stories finally clicks into place.
