Graded English readers
Public-domain tales retold in plain, literal English at five levels. Each level caps sentence length and how much new vocabulary a chapter may bring in, and an open scorer checks every story against its limits.

The five levels and their limits
| Level | Longest sentence | Guiraud ceiling, chapter | Guiraud ceiling, story | Stories |
|---|
Chapters are 300 to 600 words at every level. Guiraud is unique word stems divided by the square root of the word count, and a lower value means more repetition.
