Nine-One-One Michael Dobson is only three years old when his mother falls in the kitchen and knocks herself out. With nobody else at home Michael has to find help for his mother. He crosses the road to his grandad's house but the old man isn't at home. He returns to his home and remembers his dad telling him about the emergency number nine-one-one. But Michael doesn't know what a "nine" is as he can only count to three. Can Michael solve the problem and save his mother? A fun read with a simple message. Sound Words When I was a small boy learning to read, my mother and I had great fun trying to spell sounds. We all know that birds tweet and bees buzz but how does one spell those sounds? The spellings of sounds don't appear in dictionaries. They are unique sounds and can vary greatly. This is what makes them so amusing. Trying to spell sounds also develops a child's imagination and creates the opportunity to identify vowels and consonants and their real sounds. The sounds that we hear daily are endless and create opportunities to develop a habit of spelling things that will be very helpful in the process of learning to read. Jimmy's Feet Little Eddy has much to learn about the intricacies of the English language. He hears his mother talking on the telephone and using the well known idiom 'finding one's feet' with reference to his older brother Jimmy. Eddy assumes that Jimmy has lost his feet and sets out to find the missing extremities. Will Eddy find Jimmy's feet?
