- Curriculum visions website (non-fiction books that have their colour book band noted on them):https://www.curriculumvisions.com/ Please note that the new curriculum/government guidelines for age related book bands are Reception is lilac-yellow, Year 1 is yellow-turquoise and Year 2 is turquoise-white. These are the book bands we'd expect your child to be able to access during their year in that year group.
