Publisher's Synopsis
Bug Club is the first phonics-based school reading programme that joins books with an online reading world to teach children to read. With a fantastic mix of fiction, non-fiction, comics and phonics, and characters with kid-cred such as Walllace & Gromit, Casper the Friendly Ghost and Shaun the Sheep, plus new characters like the Mermaids and the Fang Family, there's plenty to engage both girls and boys.
Bug Club books are ideal for reading at home too, as additional practice or just for fun. Each Bug Club book is levelled to Book Bands (just like the books your child brings home from school in their book bag), so you can be sure you're buying great reads at the right level for your child. Helpful parent notes on the inside cover of each book highlight high frequency words and sounds, and the inside back cover includes ideas for games and activities related to each book.
Bug Club's Pink Level Reading Pack is great for encouraging your Foundation Stage early readers. It contains 4 fiction and 2 non-fiction books - Look Up, Look Down; Trucktown: Help! I am Wet!; What is in my Net?; Trucktown: It is Hot; Hop, Swim and Run; and At the Fun Fair.
Look Up, Look Down:Zac is always looking up and spotting things in the sky, while Daisy is always looking down and seeing things on the ground in this great little story about friendship.
Trucktown: Help! I am Wet! It's raining in Trucktown and Melvin is in the garage keeping dry. But then Max and Kat arrive. There isn't enough room for all three of them so Melvin gets pushed out into the rain!
What is in my Net? Daisy and Zac are fishing. Daisy catches a bug in her net, then a fish. Zac doesn't catch anything. Then he looks closely at the mud in his net, and finds he has caught a toy rocket!
Trucktown: It is Hot: It is a sunny day in Trucktown and Pete is feeling hot. When Dan switches on the fan to cool Pete down, he starts a sand storm. Dan can't see Pete now - where can he be?
Hop, Swim and Run: This book looks at a range of animals and describes the different movements they make.
At the Fun Fair: This book contains photographs of popular fairground rides. Each picture has a simple caption to describe how the ride is moving.
