Sports Day: A Bloomsbury Young Reader Summary

Sports Day: A Bloomsbury Young Reader by Jane Lawes

Emmie's school is having a big sports day and everyone has to choose an event to take part in. There are running races, long jump, an egg-and-spoon race, and even the three-legged race. But Emmie isn't sure what to choose and she is sure that she is going to come in last... This fun and sporty adventure from author Jane Lawes is perfect for children who are learning to read by themselves and for Key Stage 1. It features engaging illustrations by Sarah Jennings and relatable characters young readers will find hard to resist. Bloomsbury Young Readers are the perfect way to get children reading, with book-banded stories by brilliant authors like Julia Donaldson. They are packed with gorgeous colour illustrations and include inside cover notes to help adults reading with children, as well as ideas for activities related to the stories. Book Band: White Ideal for ages 6+

Sports Day: A Bloomsbury Young Reader Reviews

Every child needs a Bloomsbury Young Reader. Fun, stretching, just the right length, full of adventurous vocabulary and punctuation, [with] tips to support the parent or carer at home or the teacher who needs inspiration at the end of a busy day. * Julie-Ann McCulloch, Specialist EAL Teacher, Stockport Local Authority *
I like that the books do have messages and characters you can empathise with, but I also like that they are a light and breezy read, that there is enjoyable, playful language, humour and that they are not dull! * Katie Potter, mother of Bethan, aged 6 *
