About this title

Review

Starting Fishing is an information-packed book that is perfect for children interested in fish and fishing. Colourful illustrations and photographs, and simple, clear text, take readers through the rudimentaries of where to go fishing and how to catch the best fish, as well as what equipment is needed.

Educationally, Starting Fishing can also be used for home learning, to support Key Stage One English reading skills. The book is a great way of encouraging youngsters who are interested in fishing to read different kinds of books, such as information books, therefore increasing their interest in reading generally. (5 to 11 years) --Amanda York
