AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Rory's bike has big yellow wheels, a bell ... and training wheels. Can he learn to ride without them?This exciting new series, written by Ursula Dubosarsky and illustrated by Annie White, offers children their first experience of reading real novels. The stories are approximately 650 words, comparable with many picture books, but the books are structured like novels four chapters, each ending on a major development or twist. Above all, the stories are about real experiences in settings familiar to 5- to 7-year-olds. This series has both kid and parent appeal, and will be highly collectible.' (Publisher's blurb)
