Stories of Giants

by Christopher Rawson

Published 1 January 2004
Three hilarious original stories with easy-reading text for children who have just started reading on their own. Some giants are naughty, some are foolish but they’re all very BIG. Tales tell how a kind giant helped a poor fisherman and how three wicked giants met a grisly end. Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton.

Intended for beginner readers, these stories about dragons are written in simple text for readers who have, or are gaining confidence in reading alone.

Four original stories about princes and princesses for children just beginning to learn how to read. Meet clumsy princes, stubborn princesses and a rather pongy prince named Percy in these highly amusing stories. Usborne Young Reading has been developed with reading experts from Roehampton University. Also available with an audio CD with a dramatic listen-along recording with music and sound effects, followed by a read-along version with prompts for page turns.
