An old man lives alone by the lake. He has lots to do, but he is lonely. What will happen when a small duckling waddles up on the sand near his cottage?
Mopoke Readers provide general reading practice for children aged 7–9, as they develop their reading fluency and apply comprehension strategies to fiction and non-fiction texts.
They are suitable for teacher-led group and individual reading sessions, as well as independent reading groups, classrooms, libraries and at home.
Each fiction book contains some preview activities, a brief 'Did You Know?' information passage at the end of the story to expand background knowledge, and comprehension activities.
