What is a graded reader?

A graded reader is a book written or simplified for learners using a controlled vocabulary and grammar level.

Graded readers are the easiest way to read whole stories early, giving comprehensible input in quantity. Series exist for Chinese by HSK level, for Japanese by JLPT-like levels and for Korean. They are the core material of extensive reading.

Examples

Mandarin Companion readers; HSK-levelled readers; Japanese Graded Readers (Tadoku)
