The Colony – Horror
$1.99
Thomas wakes to find the penal settlement empty. Twenty-three convicts and soldiers. Gone. Vanished overnight. Only he and Grace remain, and an old woman dead against a tree with three words carved above her: THE GROUND REMEMBERS. When they try to leave, the bush folds back on itself. They’re trapped on land that was never theirs. Some earth doesn’t forgive. It reclaims.
What You Get:
- Complete 2,000-word story broken into chapters with engaging headings
- 600-700 Lexile level (accessible but not babyish)
- Engaging cover art
- 4 multiple-choice comprehension questions (Quick Check)
- 2 scaffolded reflection prompts (Think About It)
- Full answer key with sample student responses
- Aligned with National Australian English Curriculum
- Zero prep required – print and go
Why This Works: Students who “don’t like reading” will finish this story. The hook is fast, the stakes are real, and the ending pays off. They’ll ask for the next one.
Perfect For:
- Reluctant or struggling readers (Years 7-9)
- Literacy intervention programs
- Casual teacher emergency lessons
- Reading for pleasure initiatives
- Students who need high-interest, age-appropriate content
No more students claiming reading isn’t for them. Don’t bore them. Give them a good story and they’ll like reading.
