A CAPS compliant workbook that helps young learners perfect their small letter-writing. Each page has one letter of the alphabet written on it. The pupil traces the first letter starting at the dot, and then repeats that letter to complete the line and the rest of the page. Repetition helps pupils increase their writing skills and confidence. The book does not proceed alphabetically, but rather starts with the simplest letters for children to form, progressively helping them to master more and more complex shapes.

I have just killed myself. I meant it to be quick, but when I came to stick the poison arrow into the vein in my arm, I couldn't, and the arrow tip went into the thickest part of my leg instead. Maybe, inside my head, I wanted a little more time. To think. So I am sitting here under the thin shade of a thorn tree and thinking about my life and the things that were me - Be, of the Ju/'hoansi people. Be's story is one of sadness, but it is also a story of love, courage and dignity. It is told masterfully by Lesley Beake, award-winning novelist for young people.

Book 12b explores Peter and Jane's mountain adventure in 131 new words, including ' goodbye', 'suggested', 'clouds' and 'discussed'. Once this book has been completed, the child moves on to book 12c. 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.

In this laugh-out-loud funny sequel to the graphic novel Huda F Are You?, the Fahmys are off to Disney World, but self-conscious Huda worries her family will stand out too much.

Huda and her sisters can’t believe it when her parents announce that they’re actually taking a vacation this summer . . . to DISNEY WORLD! But it’s not quite as perfect as it seems. First Huda has to survive a 24-hour road trip from Michigan to Florida, with her sisters annoying her all the way. And then she can’t help but notice the people staring at her and her family when they pray in public. Back home in Deerborn she and her family blend right in because there are so many other Muslim families, but not so much in Florida and along the way.

It's a vacation of forced (but unexpectly successful?) sisterly bonding, a complicated new friendship, a bit more independence, and some mixed feelings about her family's public prayers. Huda is proud of her religion and who she is, but she still sure wishes she didn’t care so much what other people thought.

This brightly illustrated picture book introduces the concept

of money, first by looking at its development as an alternative to bartering and then by explaining the many forms of money, from primitive rocks, feathers, and metal lumps to the familiar coins and paper bills to alternatives such as checks, credit cards, and digital forms of payment. Adler does a particularly good job explaining the inconvenience of

bartering through child-friendly examples such as How would a baker trade for a house? How many loaves of bread would he have to trade? And why would anybody want so much bread? Using flat colors and stylized designs, Millers upbeat digital artwork helps to clarify points made in the text, while adding occasional bits of visual humor.
