Hi PH! 👋 I built this after seeing how newcomer ELL students get handed a *different*, simpler book while the rest of the class reads the real thing. That's isolating, and it doesn't teach the actual text. So every book in BookLucid comes as parallel versions of the same text: 📖 The original ✂️ A leveled/modernized English edition There are 700+ titles live now, prioritized by what's actually assigned in US grades 6–12 (Shakespeare, Brontë, Hesse, Dumas, the AP world-lit canon). I'm adding new titles based on teacher requests. Would love feedback — especially from anyone who's taught, tutored, or learned English as a second language. What would make this genuinely useful in a classroom?
