Although these aren't the most exciting books in the world, they definitely remind me of my childhood and they were a big part of the reading selection at both school and home.

Raphy used complete sentences this time to tell me what's happening. He also added funny notes:
"This man is joggling balls",
"I can joggle 100 balls",
"This girl is checking her face in the mirror",
"This man is eating something/ making a magic trick",
"Mum and Kipper look surprised".

Biff and chip is a book that has been read by children over the year. It has a number of series in which biff, chip and kipper have adventures. The books have bright colourful pictures which helps the children understand what they are reading.
This book is for key stage 1 as it helps children to read and write with simple words children can start sounding out.
Most children start reading with these books and I believe it’s highly recommended
