English pre reading skills precede reading skills. In acquiring English pre reading skills, abundant exposure to English reading text accompanied by appropriate activities is necessary. Commonly, Indonesian students at age 8 to 11 have not achieved English pre reading skills. They mostly have known the names of things which belong to vocabulary skill. The lower skills are phonological awareness, letter knowledge and print awareness. In addition, the other upper skills are print motivation and narrative skills. This study investigated how reading stories help young learners to acquire English pre reading skills. In this respect the following research question was under consideration: To what extent does reading stories help young learners to acquire English pre reading skills? To carry out the study, the instruments used were observation, interview, and student worksheet. The participants were second, fourth and fifth elementary students of a certain course in Demak and Kudus. The findings of the study revealed that the students demonstrated to acquire phonological awareness, letter knowledge, print awareness, and print motivation. They have not yet demonstrated narrative skills. It could be said that they belong to emergent readers. The roles of teachers are as motivator, storyteller, and facilitator in order to lead them to achieve higher level of reading stage.
