Perfect preparation for starting school, this fun book helps children develop pen control and practise essential reading and writing skills taught in the Early Years Foundation Stage. The engaging activities and friendly animals help build confidence in letter recognition, formation and sounds. There are things to spot and draw on every page and pictures and letters to trace over with the special pen. Parents' notes suggest how to support children's learning at home, and a useful fold-out lower-case letter formation page can be left open as they work through the book.
