Description
Collins Arabic Big Cat is a guided reading series for ages 3 to 11. The series is structured with reference to the learning progression of Arabic at nursery and primary schools researched especially for Collins. This carefully graded approach allows children to build up their reading knowledge of Arabic step by step.
Level 6 books provide an advance on level 5. Sentences are still highly repetitive but slightly longer, with simple story development supported by illustrations. Double spacing is used between words to ensure children see where each new word in a sentence begins and ends. Although the focus at level 6 remains on reading the core words, the concept of reading hamzat al-wasl and sun letters correctly is introduced in non-verbal sentences of up to 4-5 words.
A colourful retelling of Rudyard Kipling's The Elephant's Child, this fable explains how the elephant got its long trunk. As the elephant journeys through the jungle it admires the features of the other animals, until he gets a bit too close to one of them ... This sweet and funny story has been written and illustrated by Charlotte Middleton.
A story map on pages 14-15 allows children to recap the story and discuss each stage.

Charlotte's books have been shortlisted for several awards and sell around the world. Her most popular picture book series is about a plucky guinea pig named 'Christopher Nibble', and has since been adapted into a highly successful puppet show, touring across the UK.
Charlotte lives in the Cotswolds and often provides creative workshops at primary schools and literature events, but most of the time, can be found illustrating and writing children's stories (when she's not feeding her cat!).
