Rebecca at the Funfair

by Frances Ridley

Published 5 January 2005

Rebecca went to the funfair with mum and dad. She didn’t like the hall of mirrors, and the rollercoaster made her turn green – but when she won lots of prizes on a stall, she decided that she liked it after all! The funny illustrations show Rebecca’s gradual change of opinion, and include lots of details for early readers to talk about.
