The Shy Dragon and the White Knight

A rather untraditional traditional tale where dragons and knights don't want to fight.

The Shy Dragon and the White Knight is one of 9 titles in Phonics for Reading Set 1 from the Cambridge Reading Key Skills Strand (Progression in Phonics) for children in Year 1/Primary 2.

The highly attractive illustrations by Barbara Vagnozzi include some expected elements of a traditional tale, while the text provides an original, humorous story told with rhyme.

The particular phonic focus (ie, i-e, igh, y) is reinforced throughout the text.

Each children's book includes notes on the inside back cover to support use in guided group reading sessions.

Extended teaching ideas (teacher notes and photocopiable pupil worksheets) are available to download free from the Cambridge Reading website: www.uk.cambridge.org/education This title is also available as a pack of 6.
