My favourite word book

Designed to encourage letter and word recognition, the first steps to successful reading, this book contains 80 pages of colourful spreads full of words and pictures for every child to enjoy.

Zoe and Toby, plus their pets Patch, Smudge and Pat, lead the reader through the book, encouraging them to participate on every page, finding words to match familiar pictures from everyday life and learning to be at ease with letter shapes, as well as images.

Children should also love finding the ladybird on each page, who sometimes asks them questions, and discovering what happens to her at the end of the book where there is a complete index and easy-to-follow instructions on how to use it.
