Very cold weather can kill animals. How do they keep warm in the Winter? Keeping Warm in the Winter is a book-banded reading book for developing readers, carefully levelled at Green Book Band for guided reading.

Illustrated throughout with beautiful photographs, this nonfiction title is suitable for ages 9-13. Keeping Warm in the Winter features a longer, less structured text with a more extended vocabulary.

It has more varied and longer sentences, no repetition, and includes made-up words.

Story events are longer and there are more words on each page. Keeping Warm in the Winter is part of Ransom Reading Stars Plus, a structured programme for students learning to read.

The series has ten levels: four phonics levels and six book band levels (Pink through to Orange).
