I Am Reading: Yeti Spaghetti by Samantha Hay, illustrated by Mark Beech
A brand-new, laugh-out-loud book in the highly successful I Am Reading series
The villagers of Scoffi are crazy about cooking and chefs have travelled from all over the world to take part in the Scoffi cookery competition. There's only one problem – the Yetis! Will Yann's yodeling keep them away, or will the lure of lovely lasagnas and incredible ice-creams be too strong?
The I Am Reading series provides just the right balance of challenge and support for newly independent readers. Large, easy-to-read type, satisfying stories by top writers and cheerful full-color pictures help children make the transition from picture books to chapter books. Each book includes a bookmark flap, tips for beginner readers and either short, numbered chapters or two short stories.
This book is everything I love in a children’s story! It’s heartwarming, it’s hilarious, and it even has yodelling. We discovered it through our library but both of my kids adore it and have been asking for it every night so I had to track down our own copy online.
Weirdly, it doesn’t seem to be in print anymore? I couldn’t find it new, so I ordered it secondhand. I hope they print more, because this is really an excellent book!
