This edition is an annotated list of 390 literacy materials for adult new readers. All the materials are written on an eighth-grade level or below. These paperback instructional titles, many in workbook format, are for use with adult basic education (ABE) and English-as-a-Second-Language (ESL) students. The introduction includes guidelines for identifying and evaluating ABE and ESL books.

Each entry provides author, publisher, publication date, Gunning Fog readability level, annotation, ESL level (when appropriate), components, pages, International Standard Book Number, price, and series title.
