Charlie, Emma and Alberic
Oh Really, Rabbit!
This series is worth looking out for. They really do read aloud well and are extremely popular with beginner readers. Charlie, Emma and Alberic features a small fire-breathing dragon who goes to school, takes part in the school play (St George and the Dragon, naturally) and visits the seaside. It's gentle, unambitious stuff of a kind that goes down well with young children.
A follow-on from Boastful Rabbit (now in Magnet, 60p), Oh Really, Rabbit! is a collection of rabbit folk tales from all over the world retold in simple, direct style and starring our canny, indestructible hero, Rabbit. Ruth Manning-Sanders is a masterly storyteller and this is a welcome addition to he other animal tales in this series.
