Read with Biff, Chip & Kipper are one of the more commonly used reading books in primary schools. Both my children are using them as their take back homework to read each night. The books start from level 1 to 6 and gradually increases in numbers of words and complexity by level. Some of the books are with phonics.

The Summer Reading Challenge 2012 Story Lab
Last Saturday, we signed up to the Staffordshire Libraries annual Summer Reading Challenge which just launched on that day. It was for 4 – 12 year olds who are being encouraged to take part in the initiative and keep the boredom at bay during the school holidays. The challenge is to read six books over the summer break and pick up rewards and incentives along the way.
