Collins Big Cat is a guided reading series for ages 4--7 edited by Cliff Moon. Top children's authors and illustrators have created fiction and non-fiction books that your children will love to read, banded to help you choose the right book for every child. Practical teaching notes are included at the back of each book. The beautiful, clear photographs in this information book will take children through one night with the flying squirrel, from waking up in her den to hunting for food. Children will see the squirrel climbing, jumping, gliding and eating before finally going back to her den. A two page final spread showns the sequence of events within the text to help recap and remember. Blue (Band 4) non-fiction books use children's language patterns to give information which is supported by the illustrations and design.
