  Synopsis Details Reviews  
When children reach the top of Key Stage 2, and are above average readers, they need to practice reading skills with materials that are attractive, motivating and accessible; variety is important too. These stories will be useful for pupils whose first language is not English. Each book in the series contains three stories, featuring Ali and Sam and their friends from Sledmere Junior School. Each story: uses contexts that are familiar to most pupils, for example the school setting, home/local community; is written in natural language style, with simple grammatical structures; highlights "tricky" words on each page, to help readers "sort them out" without interrupting the story; features a multi-cultural, working-class community; and is accompanied by questions, to be used of for checking understanding and facilitating discussion.
