Simon Sock: Sue Hendra and Paul Linnet

Product Information

Ted tries to help by pairing Simon up with some other stripy things in the house: a snake, a fish, but nothing works. Then, there's a voice from under the chest of drawers – Simone, Simon's pair! Simon is so happy – but it turns out that just because someone looks like your perfect match, they aren't necessarily the person who will make you the happiest. Make inferences on the basis of what is being said and done (including discussing what it means to be a good friend)

Adults will recognise all the symptoms of the first flush of love in this tongue-in-cheek picture book, and children will delight in the funny illustrations and the happy ending.Each week, we published two lessons, one for KS1/First Level and one for KS2/First & Second Level. The lessons are designed for use in the classroom, but are also suitable to be used at home should schools be closed again.

A little girl sets off on a magical journey on her little boat in this truly stunning pop-up book that you won't be able to resist. A hilarious story celebrating friendship and difference from an exciting new picture book partnership.As well as guided reading of a fiction text, pupils will learn about and practise using capital letters, discuss what makes a good friend and write about their own hobbies.
