A blue Early Reader is perfect for sharing and reading together. A red Early Reader is the next step on your child’s reading journey.
Meet Mr Monkey, who belongs to Class Two. He’s more than just an ordinary toy. He’s magic! No one can quite remember now how long he’s been at the school or where he came from, but once a week one of the children has to take him home and write a diary about their time with him.
Linda Chapman is the million-copy selling author of more than 250 books including such series as My Secret Unicorn, Star Friends and Stardust as well as writing for the Rainbow Magic and Heartland series and being co-author of the New York Times best-selling series, Unicorn Academy, along with close friend, Julie Sykes. The biggest compliment Linda can have is for a child to tell her they became a reader after reading one of her books. She lives in Leicestershire with her husband, three children, two dogs and a pony.
