Format:Paperback
ESSENTIAL reading for all Infants - so much can be used from the story - sequencing; names of animals and fruits (we made a fresh fruit salad following our reading); African music;fantastic describing words. Something for every level at the Foundation Stage and KS1.

As a primary school teacher recently returned from Kenya it was a joy to find a book that was set in Kenya. The book fits well in the Literacy hour (see 100 Literacy Hours - Year One) and the children loved role playing the story, even in front of the whole school! It is hard to find multicultural books which are eye catching and can catch the imagination of a child. A must for any Key Stage One teacher,

If you want to buy a child who loves books, one book, buy them Handa's Surprise by Eileen Browne. It is superb, with great drawings and a funny storyline. Its also educational which teaches children things like: counting, fruits, animals &etc. I'd recommend it to children 7 and under.
