Straightforward day in the life of two kids on a farm, including a handful of puzzles following the story.

[Katie]

A Read with Usborne level 1 book, this tells the story about a day in the life of Lily and Ben who live on a farm. Include three basic puzzles at the end.

[Joanna]

A very simple story with minimal text and soft illustrations which allows for practice reading as well as interaction with the text and pictures. It also is a introduction to some farm basics.

Мама навіть не знає, що їй більше сподобалося: мила, інтуїтивно зрозуміла книжечка, із якою легко вчити нові слова, чи раптовий прорив із англійською у Леона: повторює кілька слів у контексті, виконує вказівки англійською і завданнячка до тексту.
