      Heyya all,


      Think Peter & Jane has this continuation like
      1a, 1b and 1c and so on... The C is the written
      activity for the series to reinforce what has been
      read so far for the particular number book.. 1c
      will have activities for stories read from book 1a
      and 1b... and so on.

      High frequency words which are non-phonetic are
      great for introduction to sight words. They have a
      note at the bottom of each page if there are any
      new words introduced.

      Similar to songs which are evergreen from the 80's,
      Peter and Jane series are like that!

      Hope this helps.
      Cheers.
      :celebrate:

        Heyya guys,


        I'm also an Enid Blyton fan.
        Was into the Secret 7 stuff too.

        Now my kiddie reads them.
        Enid Blyton has this new series abt
        the Naughtiest Girl In School, at least
        i think its new. Also the Geronimo
        Stilton series are very fun to read.
        The creative manner they project the
        interesting adjectives add humour to
        the series.

        I like Roald Dahl as well..
        The descriptions of the Chocolate Factory
        book made me drool ponds! ( I'm very
        imaginative... 😉 )

        Dr Seuss! Gosh, that fella can sure rhyme!

        When they were younger i exposed them
        to the variety from Eric Carle, Maisy, Preston
        Pig, Meg and Mog, Harriet Ziefert books are
        colurful and creative. Lift the flaps are a particular
        favourite with my kiddies.

        I do love and own a few from the \"holey-book\"
        range of Benedict Guettier too. My kids chubby
        cheeks fit into the holes (for their faces) like
        buns and paos! Playgroup children adore this
        book and nice for picture taking too. Parents
        who were on trial during my story hour with
        Benedict's books were captivated by how their
        children were captivated with the books. Hint hint..

        Books should be fun for age appropriate groups too.
        If if starts out as a bore it will always be boring...

        Make reading fun!

        Cheers!

          The first ever storybook I owned was Secret Seven Fireworks. I bought it courtesy of the $20 book award I got for topping my class, along with some other books whose titles I fail to remember now. Those days books costs like $4 to $5 each, which are VERY expensive at that time (1970s). I remembered how our textbooks cost about $40 per year and I feel so embarrassed to go approach my parents for the money.

          Anyway... when I found the Famous Five in the library, Secret Seven seemed so infantile compared with the FF, so I lost interest in the SS. But Enid Blyton remains supreme in my mind in terms of her ability to churn out hundreds of children's books. She has practically touched the lives of every English-speaking child in the world.
