This book is the second book in a series about a boy called Kaiyo for preschool children exploring feelings and emotions. This book is ideal for Early Years settings and group discussion. It is not always easy to find books that help children of preschool age think about feelings and emotions. This series, about a young boy called Kaiyo and his sister Amy, is designed to help parents and teachers open a dialogue about how children react in certain situations and how they should react in a way that is helpful to all. Kaiyo is shown playing with various friends. When his toys get broken or damaged, he is naturally very cross, but he stays cross even when his friends say sorry. As a result, his friends are upset and leave, and he finds himself alone with no one to play with. Eventually, he tells his friend that it does not matter when he has accidently sunk his boat, effectively forgiving him. The friend stays and they find something else to play. There are full colour illustrations throughout, and the book is big enough to share in a group setting. The books are designed to promote discussion and therefore do not include explanations about why certain feelings are being expressed. It is important for nursery workers and parents to be able to discuss feelings in a non-judgemental way with toddlers.

'Stanley and the bucket' is the fifth of five early reading books that feature dinosaurs. These books are intended to follow on from the initial word recognition games in the book 'Learning to Read is Child's Play. They are designed to enable the transition from single-word identification to reading in connected text using simple sentences. These books have been tried and tested with many children over the years. For some inexplicable reason, children love dinosaurs. Research and experience demonstrate that very young children find it easier to distinguish between long words such as dinosaur names (like brontosaurus, stegosaurus, and triceratops) than words such as 'then' or 'there'. The books include large printed individual words of all the text at the back of the book that can be used in games to aid initial word identification. Guidance is provided on the use of these printed words, there are also suggestions for fun activities for using these words provided in the book. There are also a few line drawings at the back of the book that children can colour in. The vocabulary in each book builds on the vocabulary in the previous books, adding just six new words that can be used to build simple sentences.

Barney the clean cat. In this book, Barney visits a farm and meets some hens, some sheep, some cows, some ducklings, horses, and pigs. He also finds a lovely blue tractor to climb up on. Barney manages to stay clean for most of his visit but finally ends up in the mud. The Barney books are for preschool children. There are full-colour illustrations throughout. These books create a sense of anticipation, and support the development of prediction, an essential skill for beginning readers. The Barney the cat books have been carefully designed to promote these prediction skills to support language and literacy. The books are large enough to use in a group setting and are designed so that children can join in with the predictable phrases. There is a song at the end of each book that supports phonemic awareness, in 'Barney the cold cat', the tune used is 'Twinkle, twinkle little star' and in the other books it is 'Old MacDonald had a farm'. The other books in the series are 'Barney the white cat' in which Barney explores in the house and gets up to mischief; 'Barney the brave cat' in which Barney explores the garden and shows just how brave he is; 'Barney the copy cat' in which Barney visits the zoo and has great fun imitating the other animals. In the Christmas special, 'Barney the cold cat', Barney searches for somewhere warm to sleep and finds the warm stable of the nativity.

This is the fifth book in the third series of the weebee reading scheme for beginner readers (Books 17 - 24). These books have a majority of phonically decodable words, providing opportunities for practising targeted phonics, but most importantly the language is predictable and tells a story. As with Series One and Two, each book introduces twenty new words, including words from the 250 most common words that make up approximately 70% of juvenile reading. Each of these eight books is a chapter story in a series that make up one adventure, in which one of the weebees is lost and the others carry out a search and rescue. The creatures from Series Two return in Series Three and have a chance to show their gratitude to the weebees for the help received. The games and activities found in the Complete Resources Book for Series Three support the learning of the vocabulary for all the books. The game (LexiLudum) is original and unique to this scheme, developed especially for the weebee Reading Scheme and based on Halliday's theory of Systemic Functional Grammar. As with Series One and Two, there are full-page colour illustrations throughout.
