Customer Reviews

Floppy shows how to do it in this super story - Rated 5/5
from the `Read at Home' series of books/Oxford Reading Tree (ORT).

From the back cover:-

'Read at Home is designed for young readers.
The entertaining stories and humorous illustrations contain built-in progression and vocabulary repetition - which is just what children need to become successful readers!

This particular book is 1a, from LEVEL 1 - Getting Ready to Read
For children who:-

can recognise their own name
can match some new words
can recognise some letter sounds'

Colourful covers make up this range of books and each also has its book number on the spine and the book `emblem' - this one being the ever popular `Floppy the Dog'!

22 high quality shiny pages in the popular 2-page format, beautifully illustrated throughout.
Numbered pages with simple easy-to-follow text, and an additional dimension of `find the starfish hidden in every picture', which helps to encourage that turn of the page!

This book starts by introducing the characters by name:-

Mum, Dad, Biff, Chip, Kipper and Floppy

as they set out to go fishing.

Other activities:-

'Think about the story' page with 4 questions to encourage further discussion, both about the story and beyond, on page 21.
This book winds up with a `fishing line maze' and a `common words' list for this story and Level 1 books in general.

Example of text:-

'Kipper was fishing.
He got a hat.
Biff was fishing.
She got a crab.
Chip was fishing.
He got ......'


fun to learn - Rated 5/5
This new hardback book in the Oxford Reading Tree series is the best so far (re an introduction to reading for young children) My daughter loved the story and felt confident in reading the basic sentences (which were easy to guess and read via the illustrations) She thought the story was funny and enjoyed finding the hidden starfish in the pictures. Another enjoyable feature was the questions about the story, at the end of the book.
An effective and fun tool in helping kids learn to read.
