MISSING!

Biff, Chip and Kipper storybooks

by Cynthia Rider, Alex Brychta

"Read at Home" is the best-selling home reading series designed for young, beginner readers. It features all the popular "Oxford Reading Tree" characters in exciting stories specially written for parents to support their children's reading at home. These entertaining stories, with real life and fantasy adventures, are carefully graded across 5 levels, and contain built-in progression and vocabulary repetition throughout. "Missing" is Level 3a for children to become a reader - those children who can recognize 10-20 words by sight, can read simple sentences, and know all the initial letter sounds. The story is written with a simple sentence structure and vocabulary repetition with two to three sentences per page. Stories provide clear parental support within and beyond the book.
This title includes a "Tips for Reading Together" page, giving parents practical ideas for helping with their child's reading; a "Think about the Story" page providing stimulating ideas for parents to talk about with children when they are discussing the story; and a "Useful common words" panel to highlight high frequency words used in the story which have a close correlation with the requirements of the National Literacy Strategy. This book is at the same reading level as "The Old Tree Stump". Approximate ORT level is Stage 3.

These books were my childhood- I still have them, since I was four- all except one which mysteriously disappeared. But ahh I love them.
Thanks to my father who started my life long love for books x
