Synopsis

Fully Booked is a series of fiction and non-fiction for readers in KS3 who need reading practice in phonics and decoding skills. The paperback format resembles books their peers are reading, while the shorter length will help students gain confidence and make progress. They can be read in class or at home and are supported by free teacher notes.

Abigail tells her brother Lee a spooky tale about a monster called the Creep in the Deep that lives in the pond. But just as she finishes, something rises from the water – just like the monster! Luckily, it’s not the Creep… it’s their pet dog!

This is a fantasy story.

The focus sounds covered are: /sh/ /th/ /ng/ /ai/ /ee/, and adjacent consonants.

Free teacher notes for this book are provided on collins.co.uk which will help to develop comprehension skills, vocabulary acquisition and recall – leading to reading success.
