ESL Success Stories

Hi Shelley, I have had your materials for a couple of weeks now (3-5 stories and 4-12 games) and I feel like a kid with a new toy...! Not only are the kids in my classes enjoying them but so am I.  I even bought a laminator! My own children find it highly amusing....

Sallyann Barbero, France

Your games are such great fun and adaptable for all ages. The kids enjoy them immensely. They are the perfect fit for my students and my style of teaching.

Dominique Guihenneuc, Italy


I haven't found anything so good to match what I am doing with my students.

I believe that any teacher who wants to make a difference in his classes should take a look at your book. 

Ella C. Romania

Your resources are already saving me heaps of time and lessening the anxiety from having such a hectic and mixed teaching schedule. I'm teaching kindy, elementary and middle school students.

Anthony Bennett, S. Korea (3 to 5 and 6 to 12 teaching resources)

Six months ago, my four year old and my seven year old spent 20 minutes with Shelley using these techniques to learn colours; I was amazed to find that they still remember them all today!

"More Great ESL / EFL Stories for Preschool English Language Learners!"

Dear Preschool or Kindergarten Teacher,

cat story for young english language learnersIf you have been enjoying the first series of illustrated stories for young English language learners  then you will love the next series of stories 11 to 20.

The next ten preschool stories, also written for children aged 3 to 5, are designed to follow on from the first ten. One can use the preschool stories in isolation, but with complete beginners learning English as a foreign language it is recommended to follow the sequence as the vocabulary is introduced gradually and subsequent stories revise words introduced earlier in the sequence.  

Vocabulary and Language in these Beautiful Stories for Ages 3 to 5

You can see examples of the pictures from the different stories below, as well as the language that will be learned and reviewed from that story.

ESL preschool story pictureESL / EFL Preschool Story 11

Story 11 introduces family members, with the frog family, who become very hot and in turn each family member jumps into the cool pond. Then the frogs become cold and jump out again.  

Children love pretending to be the frogs and this story is easy to put on as part of a show to parents at the end of a term.  

Some verbs are revised from previous stories such as jump, eat and swim.


ESL / EFL  Preschool Story 12
ESL story pic of cowboysIn story 12 the cowboys and indians are fighting throughout the different rooms of the house.  

The pictures are dark, shadowy and mysterious as the battle rages in all the different rooms.

The cowboy and indian are hidden in each picture so your preschool children can have fun finding them.

Then mother calls and the cowboys and indians turn out to be two friends, and the story ends with the two boys having tea together in the light kitchen with chocolate cake.


ESL / EFL Preschool Story 13

ESL / EFL preschool story picStory 13 revises the rooms of the house and adds more rooms, as two pets, Cat and Mouse have a mad chase through the various rooms when mother goes out.  

The story also includes the phrases, You can't catch me! Oh yes I can! 

There are some really fun games in the mini-lesson plans that you can play with those phrases, especially if you have some space. 

This story has a sweet ending with cat and mouse on the sofa together.

ESL / EFL Preschool Story 14

Example preschool story pictureThere is further revision in story 14 of the rooms of the house and family members.  Each story builds on the previous ones so the young children repeatedly hear the same words and remember them.

New words and phrases are also introduced. Each day of the week (revised from story 10 with Gerard the Giraffe) a member of Archie's family give him a present.  The present is a train and some track. 

Archie loves his train set and builds it right through the entire house...

The mini-lesson plans have fun vocabulary games for giving and for train.

EFL / ESL Preschool Story 15

ESL / EFL preschool storyStory 15 tells the story of Julie and her family as they build their house, but each time they build it something goes wrong, until finally they succeed with the perfect house. 

Family members and rooms of the house are revised, as one simply cannot do enough reviewing with young English language learners.  

New vocabulary includes words from nature such as the sea, the beach, the desert, mountain and snow. Other vocabulary is revised from previous stories including sand, field, green, garden, flowers and pond

Verbs include: build, live and play.

EFL / ESL Preschool Story 16

Example story illustration In story 16 introduces farm animals and the ordinal numbers first to fifth. These can be replaced by simple numbers one to five if that is more appropriate for your pupils.

The words dark and light are revised and
the question How many? is introduced.  The animals are all sleeping in the dark fields and numbers are revised as your pupils count up all the different animals.

In the final picture family members are revised again when you meet the mouse family who are the only animals wide awake and mother mouse is reading a story in the light of the moon.


body parts story picture EFL / ESL Preschool Story 17

Story 17 introduces body parts.  Thomas loves to play his computer game and keeps doing crazy things like falling in a hole, or a pond, or walking into a lamp post.  

Each time his mother has to bandage up a  body part.  Then he feels much better.

Eventually Thomas sees his friends running and he cannot join in as he has so many bandages, so he throws his computer game away while his mother reads him a story.

EFL / ESL Preschool Story 18

New body parts are introduced and the body parts from the previous story are revised as the the animals all want a bandage too.

The mini-lesson plans contain a fun selection of ESL / EFL games with the children  playing at doctors and guessing which body part is injured in the game Whose Shadow Is It?

princess preschool story EFL / ESL Preschool Story 20

Story 20 is the Princess and pirate.

Cat and Mouse from story 13 wish they could be a pirate and a princess.

A fairy appears and gives them different items of clothing so at the end they are dressed up as a princess and a pirate.

The stories on their own are really lovely, and they all have adorable characters or a cute twist at the end that appeals to preschoolers, and adults too for that matter!  

Many teachers have told me they find my resources excellent value and this next series of stories 11 to 20 is equally good value for money, especially given that this series contains even more pictures, for which I made a substantial investment!  

There are over one hundred full colour story illustrations, PLUS new colour flashcards. Nonetheless I prefer teachers to find my resources affordable and worthwhile, particularly as many of my customers live in countries where wages are lower than in Western Europe.

Therefore I am offering you stories 11 to 20, plus all the extras, today for under 3 euros per story, or 29 euros. Considering each story will keep your young pupils busy for many happy hours of fun learning this is unequivocably great value. 

You may also pay in pounds or US dollars as you prefer. In US Dollars the price is 39.00 USD, which is 3.9 dollars a story, or 19.00 UK Pounds, only one pound forty per story!

Included with the Preschool Stories

As with the first series, each story is fully and beautifully illustrated in colour so the children can listen and understand easily, and comes with:  
  • a choice of both A4 and A5 size colour pictures for download
  • black and white vocabulary flashcards for colouring
  • colour vocabulary flashcards for all new vocabulary
  • bingo sets for each story.
  • rough sketches of the story illustrations for colouring - these are rough unlike the black and white flashcards.

Each story also comes with mini-lesson plans using ideas taken mainly from the ebook of games that you have, including:
  • pre-story games,
  • ideas to use during story telling,
  • and post-story activities.  
Each story can be the focus of either one lesson, or a series of three lessons, depending on the ability and level of your pupils.

As children love stories so much you will be able to re-use previous stories over and over again. In fact this is recommended for revision so the children do not forget vocabulary and phrases they have learned.

The games you already have combined with the different stories allow you to move gradually through various topics using fun games, colourful pictures and varied activities.

guaranteeBear in mind that I do offer a 60 day guarantee so if you are not completely and totally satisfied you can ask for a refund.

If you already have the first ten stories you will know what to expect, and these are every bit as good for teaching purposes with some interesting stories as the children's language is growing.
