A classic tale from Read It Yourself - a structured programme to support children from first phonics to fluent reading

Based on the classic tale. A busy mother makes a giant pancake to feed her seven hungry children. The pancake is so marvellous that a man, a cat, a dog and a hen want to eat it too! Will a pig help the big pancake escape?
