Rugby League + Reading!

Stephen Crichton tells how a young Samoan from Australia became one of the stars of the NRL!

Stephen Crichton is a Reading All Stars book. Reading All Stars books are written for people who need support with reading, whatever their age.

The text is written in short bites, in simple language and with lots of visual support. I wish I could have used photos as in other books in this series but unfortunately the NRL would not allow it so I used AI-generated imagery for this book instead.

I wrote Stephen Crichton to inspire young people to seek the heights! Purchase a copy here: https://readingwarrior.com/product/stephen-crichton/
