A beautiful re telling of this classic Aesop's fable illustrating the merits of hard work. Level One titles are
designed to be the first real books a beginner reader will tackle and
are designed to foster a lasting enthusiasm for books and reading. They
are 32 pages in length, comprising the main story (up to 150 words),
from classic tales to folk tales, delightful illustrations and 6 pages
of fun, reading-related puzzles. Will be enjoyed with equal enthusiasm
if read alone or together with a parent.
Aesop's charming fable retold for beginner readers to tackle with very light support. Ant and Grasshopper can't agree over how to spend the summer. Who will be right when winter comes? Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton. Includes several pages of reading-related puzzles.
Katie studied languages at Cambridge University and soon discovered it wasn’t just French or Italian she loved, but language itself.
Her first job was writing reviews of curry houses in verse. Her second was writing science and business articles. Her third and favourite job is writing educational books for children. She loves tackling new subjects and making them come alive for young readers. So far she has written about everything from trucks and toilets to space and Churchill.
Katie now has two little children of her own and they are definitely her fiercest critics.
