Collins Big Cat supports every primary child on their reading journey from phonics to fluency. Top authors and illustrators have created fiction and non-fiction books that children love to read. Levelled for guided and independent reading, each book includes ideas to support reading. Teaching and assessment support and eBooks are also available. When I Was Seven is about a divorce that nobody saw coming, and the positive reaction to life without Dad. My sister, my Mum and me find a new home and over time, a combination of reading, television, film, music, sport and friendship provides healing – change helps us grow! Ruby/Band 14 books give increasing opportunities for children to develop their skills of inference and deduction. Pages 46 and 47 allow children to re-visit the content of the book, supporting comprehension skills, vocabulary development and recall. Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities. Less
