WHAT'S UNIQUE ABOUT THIS APP?

Our stories are designed to help children develop a love of reading. We do this by using:

•Rhyme: This helps children to read word families and develops reading confidence.
•Rhythm: Helps children recognise patterns in words and sentences and makes reading a pleasure.
•Repetition: Allows children multiple opportunities to recognise, revisit and master written words.
•Humour: Engages children in the text.

We aim for our books to:
•Foster a love of language
•Build and extend vocabulary
•Capture children's interest
•Inspire creativity
•Kindle imagination.

Each story contains GUIDE NOTES for parents/educators which suggest activities and experiences which will extend children's learning based on concepts introduced in the books.
