Usborne Phonics Readers have been created in consultation with


a language expert, taking into account the latest research on the
most effective ways of teaching reading. Children who have just learned to read can enjoy the lively stories with very little
guidance from an adult, gaining the experience and enthusiasm they need to become fully confident readers.

Stephen Cartwright's delightful illustrations complement the text and are designed to stimulate further interest. Fold-out
pages add to the enjoyment.

What is synthetic phonics?
Phonics-based reading involves learning to recognize the distinct sounds, or phonemes, that go together to make up words. There
are just over 40 phonemes in the English language. Some phonemes correspond to a single letter, like the p-i-g sounds in the word
"pig", and others to combinations of letters, such as the sh-ar-k sounds in the word "shark".

Synthetic phonics is the process of reading by sounding the individual phonemes in a word, and then synthesizing-running them
together - or blending them to read the whole word. Children who learn to read using synthetic phonics start by learning the
individual phonemes, then soon learn to sound and blend in order to read whole words. This gives them the confidence to read
unfamiliar words and tackle new texts, an important step towards independent reading.

Words can be divided into two basic groups: regular phonic words, such as "pig". which can be read by sounding and blending, and
words which are wholly or partly irregular. Most words in English are regular, but some very common words, such as "the" and
"was", are irregular and have to be learned. When your child meets an unfamiliar word, encourage him or her to read it regularly;
children may recognize the irregularity and correct themselves. or you can guide them if necessary.

Read this story with your child, encouraging him or her to sound out the words as you go. Soon, most children will start to sound out the
words for themselves. This is an excellent way of helping to develop a fundamental reading skill.
