About Our Books

Thorndike Press® Large Print books are reprints of popular and classic regular-print books, holding the reader's attention and promoting reading independence and growth. Vocabulary and reading independence increase because the reader is not limited to lower-level reading materials.

Struggling readers are often self-conscious about their reading abilities. Thorndike Press Large Print books for young adult and middle readers are designed to look just like regular-print hardcover books, thereby alleviating any negative connotations that readers may have about using a Large Print book.

All Thorndike Press books are 100% guaranteed. Built for heavy circulation with library bindings, each book is set in jet-black, 16-point type and printed on special high-opacity permanent paper.

Our books are:

  • The same size or smaller than regular-print hardcover books
  • Complete and unabridged
  • Created with the same cover as the original hardcover/softcover book
  • The words "large print" do not appear anywhere on the outside of the book

We welcome your feedback and questions. To order or receive information about our books for middle readers and young adults, please contact our Thorndike Press Sales department at 1-800-223-1244, ext. 4.
