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. Nick Butterworth's well known and much loved character Percy the Park Keeper stars in this beautifully told story for early readers. When Percy's cap, scarf and gloves go missing, they end up being used by some mischevious mice to decorate a snowman! Nick Butterworth's characteristically beautiful illustrations bring Percy and his friends warmly to life, with lots of features for discussion during reading. A two-page spread at the end of the book recounts the story in numbered sequences to help children recap and remember. Yellow (Band 3) books offer varied sentence structure and natural language.
