The purpose of this study is twofold. First, the study looks into the changing research topics in primary English reading and finds out what topics remain scarce to be explored by reviewing the existing studies on primary English reading. Second, following findings from the review of studies, it proposes three alternative readings for aesthetic and critical reading in English. For research review, the journal of Primary English Education was searched using key words such as ‘reader,’ ‘reading,’ ‘story,’ and ‘literature,’ and 26 studies were selected and examined. The review of the existing 26 studies indicates that reading methods and linguistic subskills of reading have been studied the most while very few studies have been conducted focusing on aesthetic and critical reading. The study promotes the idea that reading, L1 or L2, comprises both the lower-level processing and the higher-level processing. However, research findings indicate that reading research in primary English has been the lower-level oriented. To this end, some alternative readings such as juxtaposed reading and reading non-stereotypical stories are suggested as a stepping stone to expand the scope of teaching primary English reading.
