Publisher's Synopsis
Suitable for children in Year 1 (age 5), Gracie's Cat is from the Cambridge Reading genre strand Narrative Recounts - a strand which motivates children to explore their personal responses and make links to their own experiences. Each story in this set of nine marks a significant event from someone's childhood. While some of the stories are set in modern Britain, others take place in the 1930s or 1940s in locations as diverse as Hong Kong and Trinidad. Grace Hallworth is a storyteller and this is one of the stories she tells about her own childhood. She was about five years old at the time, living in Trinidad in the 1930s. In the story, Gracie's cat had four lovely kittens. One day, they all went missing. Narrative recounts also provide excellent models for children's own writing. This pack of 6 is for guided group reading.
