Stories for .....


Stories for ... 5, 6, 7, 8 years old

Random House are about to release (Dec 1st) some great classics with a twist. Remember those books when we were young: Stories for 7yos or Bedtime tales for 8yos? They are about to come into a book shop near you. These updated versions are from various Australian writers. (Ursula Dubosarsky; Andy Griffiths; Paul Jennings; Jackie Harvey; Robin Klein; Morris Gleitzman and more)



Stories for 5yo's: Large Print. Short stories which would hold attention; a little illustration every now and then; 10 stories to last more than a few readings.








Stories for 6yos: Very Australian and funny (I've only skimmed this one so grain of salt and all that); very contemporary - one story called "No Hat No Play"; and aimed well at the age group. Funny stories they will like to either read to themselves, or be read to by an adult.






Stories for 7 and 8 yos: Good; smaller print for kids to read to themselves. Lots of fun with kid humour; a good stocking filler. 



Random House recommend to book shops to sell them for around $15.00. Also remember they can be read by kids either said of the 'ages' that they are suppose to be written for. Enjoy these fun family friendly stories.
