Hi quirkymum and plum-cake,

We will want to do more book events as well, however, we are still
looking into how we can do that from a logistics point of view.
We will update you here if there are more book events.

TAS

Thank you.

Hi TAS,


Thank you for the bookfair yesterday. Your teachers really knew the storybooks very well and could introduce and excite my kid about the books. The composition that you gave to show us how to use the phrases from storybooks was excellent. I now know how to use the storybook phrases for a composition. :celebrate:

Hi TAS,


My kids have started to pick up the habit of reading after I introduce them
to your books. Thank you very much for your excellent recommendations.

I agree with one of the parent here, you should have your own bookstore or online store perhaps. Looking forward to your library system at TAS as well, i recently signed my kids up with you and they love the lessons.

Thanks glendt for your feedback. We are not planning to have a bookshop
but we might do regular book events at our AMK branch.

Hi,

Is this composition given once you buy a book from TAS?

[The Alternative Story]

Hi wywy2,


Yes, when you purchase our storybooks, they come with creative
writing phrases extracted from the storybooks and also
a composition to show you how to apply those phrases into
a composition.

Funz:

Wow, even I want to read these books. They all sound so interesting. DD at P1 will not be able to fully grasp the story. Mummy will buy and read them first, then keep them for her when she is ready. Hehe, macam family heirloom like that, like my Wishing Chair, Faraway Tree and Nancy Drew books.

Hi Funz,

Haha, yes like a family heirloom, it sounds funny but it's true, books
are indeed a treasure we can pass down to our kids.

I remember reading Wishing Chair, Faraway tree and grew up dreaming
of English picnics and toffees that could explode in your mouth and
houses in trees. It is a pity not many children read Enid Blyton nowadays.

She could really transport you to magical places

If you want to know any specific genre of books for your daughter,
let us know and we will do our best to help.

Just curious...what levels are the books above suitable for?

P1/ 2/ 3 or higher? I mean, they are wordy and need imagination to really grasp what is talking there...

I used to get hooked onto those books and can read a few in a day... got quite upset when I realized that I read all that they had published...lol! no more dreaming...back to reality!

Have you heard of Malory Towers? think itz a series too...about school boarding. Wonder what level is it suitable for?
