All in a Month

Collins Big Cat is a guided reading series for ages 4-11 edited by Cliff Moon. Top children's authors and illustrators have created fiction and non-fiction books that your children will love to read, banded to help you choose the right book for every child. Practical ideas for guided reading are included at the back of each book.

Join the countdown as one boy describes the events in his life in the past month, from moving house a month ago to preparing for school and making friends today. Accompanied by snapshots of each event, this illustrated non-fiction recount is written by Monica Hughes.

Children can re-cap the events of the book on pages 14-15.

Red B/Band 2b books contain short, simple, repetitious single sentences of approximately five to eight words. The text contains familiar objects and actions, combined with simple story development.
