Boris and Sid Meet a Shark
An account of a short holiday in which these two child-like characters meet a variety of weird and wonderful sea creatures. This very simple and pleasing text can be used alongside many non-fiction texts.

Boris and Sid Go Camping
This gives an account, told from a child’s perspective, of a fun camping trip where it rains – and rains! Many children will empathise with the familiar context while reading this simple recount.
