The Magic Porridge Pot

A story-based approach to phonics practice helping children to read with confidence. A magic cooking pot sounds good, until you forget how to stop it! The Magic Porridge Pot is for children in Year 2/Primary 3 and is a Russian folktale, retold by Cynthia Rider. The highly attractive illustrations by Emma Shaw-Smith are inspired by the story's country of origin. The particular phonic focus (short oo - pull, good) is reinforced throughout the text. Each children's book includes notes on the inside back cover to support use in guided group reading sessions.
