In the last year of Junior school, children and their parents look forward to Senior school and new questions arise: - Does my child need extra help with his English? - Her class teacher just doesn't have time to help her with the basics. - He just can't seem to get started with story writing. - Her stories are lovely but she can't manage a time limit! - I am considering putting him in for an examination to a selective school, but is his English good enough? - She hasn't a clue about comprehensions. If you share any of the concerns listed above then this is the book for you.
