Key Words with Peter and Jane uses the most frequently met words in
the English language as a starting point for learning to read
successfully and confidently. The Key Words reading scheme is
scientifically researched and world renowned. Book 1c continues
Peter and Jane's adventures and introduces 20 new words such as
'ball', 'shop' and 'toy'. Once this book has been completed, the
child moves on to book 2a. The Key Words with Peter and Jane books
work because each of the key words is introduced gradually and
repeated frequently. This builds confidence in children when they
recognise these key words on sight (also known as the 'look and
say' method of learning). Examples of key words are: the, one, two,
he. There are 12 levels, each with 3 books: a, b, and c. Series a:
Gradually introduces new words Series b: Provides further practise
of words featured in the 'a' series Series c: Links reading with
writing and phonics. All the words that have been introduced in
each 'a' and 'b' book are also reinforced in the 'c' books
A lost dog, a hidden time tunnel and a secret lake take Stella and
Tom to their home and the children living there 100 years in the
past. A page-turning time travel adventure for children aged 8-11.
Now enjoyed by over 250,000 young readers! When Stella and her
younger brother, Tom, move to their new London home, they become
mystified by the disappearances of Harry, their elderly neighbour's
dog. Where does he go? And why does he keep reappearing
wet-through? Their quest to solve the riddle over the summer
holidays soon leads to a boat buried under a grassy mound - and a
tunnel that takes them to a secret lake. Who is the boy rowing
towards them? Why is he so terrified? And whose are those
children's voices carried on the wind from beyond the woods? Stella
and Tom soon discover that they have travelled back in time to
their home and its gardens almost 100 years earlier. Here they make
both friends and enemies and uncover startling connections between
the past and present. The Secret Lake has been described by readers
as a modern Tom's Midnight Garden and compared in atmosphere with
The Secret Garden and the Enid Blyton and Nancy Drew mystery
adventure stories. Its page-turning plot, with its many twists and
turns, makes it a firm favourite with both boys and girls. Karen
Inglis describes it as: "a time travel mystery adventure with
modern twists - the kind of story that I loved to read as a child,
but brought right up to date".
