The Polk St. School series of which this is the latest title is ideal for the fledging solo reader. The bold type, simple black and white illustrations, and basic story line are all conductive to building up reading confidence, and the tales all relate to experiences within the child's understanding, This particular story revolves around a piece of writing about real people which a class has to complete. The problems encountered are simple and realistic, and the outcomes predictable yet uncontrived. Worth buying for the lower Junior School library and classroom.
