This book is from Readerful's Independent Library. It is for children aged 9 to 10 to read without support.

Readerful: Inspiring Children to Read More
Readerful is a specially designed reading library that motivates children aged 4-11 to develop a lifelong love of reading. The series offers contemporary, inclusive books across three key collections:

Books for Sharing: Picture books to be read aloud by an adult for inspiring reading sessions

Independent Library: Fiction, graphic texts, character mini-series and non-fiction for children to read independently

Rise: Fully decodable books for older struggling readers to read independently.

How Readerful works:
* Read aloud the Books for Sharing for magical reading sessions that motivate children to read more.
* Encourage children to choose a book to read by themselves, from Readerful's Independent Library or from Rise. You'll find links between the books' topics, vocabulary, characters and authors - all designed to keep children reading, boost their vocabulary and develop their knowledge of the world around them.
