English Reception/Year 1 Autumn Stories by the Same Author

The cat, the fish and the shell

This is a very simple text, aimed at children who are just beginning to read. With striking illustrations, this surreal narrative has an immediate and direct appeal to young readers.

The Bunny Lady 

This is a simple non-fiction text about Beatrix Potter and is centred around her creation of the Peter Rabbit stories. Children can follow key points of her life, supported by the charming illustrations, and understand how she came to write these magical tales!

Just Suppose

This story uses repetition and humour to create a text in which imagination runs riot and surreal situations, of the sort which children particularly like, abound. As they are just starting reading, this highly accessible text is as much fun for children as many with more complex but less creative language. 

Goldilocks

This is a lovely twist on a traditional tale and one which children will really enjoy. The text is deliberately simple, easy for any beginning reader. With beautiful illustrations, this is a motivating text for any child to read.
