Anandaya Foundation Books

Building a strong foundation to make the English language reading joyful and natural

Anandaya Foundation is striving to bring a reading revolution by creating decodable readers that are systematic with a rich phonics base to help child read with ease.  When team Anandaya started writing Anandaya books. It was carefully ensured that the vocabulary list was limited to high-frequency words used in the daily language of government school children. ‘Anandaya books set’ is a four-step staggering reading resource that helps children get started on their reading journey and makes reading fun and natural for children. It pushes the rigour of reading systematically throughout the academic year. The words used at every step are meticulously planned by our team of experts. Team Anandaya hopes to see all MCD children read English fluently using our specially curated books.
