Cover Story
There was a boy called Thomas Mead
Who never ever learned to read.
"l wish you would!" his teacher sighed
"Why should l?" Thomas Mead replied.
The Tale of Thomas Mead (Bodley Head 0 370 30357 1, £3.25, January 1981) which is a positive and hilarious answer to `Why should I?' Pat says, `I liked the idea because both my children found reading difficult.' We are delighted to have Thomas Mead on our cover and Pat Hutchins in the Authorgraph (p. 14).

A full colour version of a story which was first published in the original My Naughty Little Sister book in the early fifties - and who better to illustrate this favourite tale than Shirley Hughes? My Naughty Sister is - inevitably - disobedient; she gets herself soaking wet on the fishing expedition and finishes the day with a hot drink in bed and, a little fish in her basket.
Just the thing for those who want to read about this irrepressible character but cannot yet cope with the collections of stories, and, for sharing with a small group.
