Every child must read this - Rated

One of our favourites - Rated
The simple rhymes and wonderful imagery go a long way towards making tbis one of our favourite books. Like all children he loves the repitition and finds each different cat amusing to - not least of all when we try and make it through the list as the end without taking a breath. A great early book that doesn't pall as your child gets older.

young learners esl - Rated
This is a wonderful book for all young esl learners, full of fun, with ready and really useful stereotypes, easy to learn and to recite. The rhythm, the colours, the repetitive pattern makes it so enjoyable that reading English becomes really funny and learning how to pronounce, to spell or where to put a phrase/wod stress is easy! AN excellent follow-up activity after 'description' or 'countries and nationalities'...
I highly recommend it to any teacher with esl sixth forms!

A delicious celebration of cats and boxes - Rated
Cats of all nationalities appear in their appropriate costume: the cat from Japan with a big blue fan, the cat from Berlin in lederhosen who plays a violin - but none of them is quite as charming as my cat, who likes to hide in boxes of all kinds - cardboard, hat, or best of all, toy.
