Three original stories for children who have just started reading on their own. Stories feature wrestling raptors, a hilarious tale of vegetarian dinosaurs and a prehistoric egg hatching in a modern museum. Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton.
Iggy Peck has been building fabulous creations since he was two. His parents are proud of their son, though sometimes surprised by some of Iggy's inventive creations (like the tower he built out of used diapers). When a new second grade teacher declares her dislike of architecture, Iggy faces a challenge. He loves building too much to give it up!
It smells horrible and looks disgusting, but rubbish hasn't always been a problem. Some of it can even be useful. Intended for children whose reading ability and confidence allows them to tackle longer and more complex stories, this title tells its intriguing story, past ancient animal droppings, stinking sewers, and dirty nappies.
The eccentric Mr. Puff lives next door to Sam in a house full of interesting things - including a basket of dinosaur eggs! When the dinosaurs begin to grow, something needs to be done - fast! Specially written as part of the Usborne Young Reading Programme for children who have just started reading alone.
Part of the "First Reading" series, this title is aimed at children who are beginning to read. It allows children to build their burgeoning reading skills and is accompanied by illustrations.
