Oxford University Press - Greatest Stories

These are covers I designed for the Oxford Reading Tree Greatest Stories series. The stories for this series were selected and picked by Michael Morpurgo - author of over 130 children’s books. The selected books are timeless classics for kids aged 7-11 years. These much-loved stories are carefully graded by Oxford levels, suiting every child’s needs. Careful typographic hierarchy and page pacing were used to support readability for young readers while maintaining visual interest using beautiful artworks, across the entire series. The TreeTops Greatest Stories series has been highly successful, particularly within the UK primary school education sector, as part of the widely used Oxford Reading Tree framework.
