Excellent - By: K R, 21 May 2008 
Year 6 - there are not enough hoursin the day to read a chapter every afternoon such as my old teachers used to do when I was at school. Moreover, I wanted to illustrate to Year 6 children that they can write or read a short story without compromising on the quality of writing. These stories illustrate the point very well. Use adventurous vocabulary. My class really loved the story about the Greenfly - all stories have a twistin the tale & are great for writing frames. Both genders adored them. Short enough to read a story a day. Perfect to give examples of genres of writing. Incorporate into your literacy hour. I found the children trying to take it from my desk & read it at break. Buy it.

There is a whole series of these books & they are truly excellent. They are highly entertainingin their own right but illustrated to my KS2 kids that a short story can be really interesting & effective. Fabtastic.
