Illustrated by Stephen Cartwright
Delightful short stories for the beginner reader.
There is a lot to see and do on Apple Tree Farm. Mrs Boot, the farmer and her children, Poppy and Sam, are always busy. In these delightful stories they find a lost pig and a new lamb, get butted by a grumpy goat, help Mr Boot make a scarecrow, chase a naughty sheep and lots more. Rusty, the dog, is always ready to join in with whatever everyone is doing.
This delightful collection of short stories has been written with the help of a language expert, for young children who are just beginning to read. Stephen Cartwright's charming illustrations carry the simple, humourous stories along and give clear clues to the words and their meaning. With the help and encouragement of an adult, beginner readers will be able to achieve the pleasure and satisfaction of reading a whole story for themselves.
