This title is part of a brand new set of phonically decodable

reading books perfect for very early readers. These expertly

levelled stories are engaging, and are exactly matched

to Little Wandle Letters & Sounds Revised, used in schools across

the UK.

The series includes a wide selection of diverse and inclusive

stories, accompanied by bright, contemporary and humorous

illustrations that will engage and inspire young readers with

a ‘find the character’ feature on each spread.

The artwork is detailed so as not to provide picture cues and

prompting. Each book also contains parent’s notes and a ‘retell

the story’ task to support children’s oracy, vocabulary

and comprehension skills. Thirteen sets of books covering groups

of sounds to allow for progression.

The stories in this set focus on the sounds found in Scholastic

Set 08 and revise the sounds found in previous sets. There are

thirteen sets in total, covering:
