Guest Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Has anyone read the Billy Bonkers books to their reception class or do you think they are more suited to Key Stage 1? I have never read these book so am not familiar with them. I am looking for suitable stories that would be good to read 1 chapter per day. Is anyone old enough to remember Enid Blyton's 'Mr Twiddle'?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Ah ... just found - it's suitable for 7-9 yrs apparently! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Susan Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I think at the beginning of Reception, your children will still like a story a day with pictures. You could read the Annie Rose stories etc that are a bit longer, maybe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 I don't remember Mr Twiddle, but my grandson (now 5) enjoyed The Faraway Tree very much last Summer holidays - we're on our second go through now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
