Paddington's Picnic

Michael Bond
 Nick Ward
(Young Lions)
978-0006746737, RRP £2.75, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Picnic on the River (Beginner Readers)" on Amazon

A must for all young Paddington fans. Although the illustrations do support the text a great deal, there are a lot of 'difficult' words and phrases which a larger size of print face hardly mitigates. This is the sort of book that needs an adult reading first, followed by a lot of adult help during the first attempted readings, after which the fledgling reader really will fly!
