Synopses & Reviews
Nothing hooks readers like record breakers, and this book compiles the biggest of everything into an early reader kids cant resist. Starting with animals, and moving through trees and plants, ships, planes, mountains, rivers, deserts, buildings, bridges and much more, each fascinating page of Kingfisher Readers L3: Record Breakers-The Biggest by Claire Llewellyn draws kids in with interwoven photography and text that pushes their reading skills a little further. “Think big!” fact boxes and an index add new elements, and a glossary at the back helps define vocabulary highlighted throughout the text. LEVEL 3: READING ALONE WITH SOME HELP Accessible and engaging, with plenty of interest and repetition, and more variety of language and information than level 2. Text introduces a few more challenging words and a wider variety of tenses. Guided Reading Levels: K, L
