The Right Now! series contains colourful high-impact graphics and cutting-edge design, which adds drama to every page. These 40-page stories, containing no more than 600 words each, are intended for striving readers who struggle with traditional classroom fiction. The gripping realism of each story draws the reader in… but what happens next? The endings are ambiguous—students can debate what’s next in a series of activities designed to further explore the subject.
