Description

A new title in the fantastic First Reading series, part of the Usborne Reading Programme. Based on a traditional Japanese folktale. Aimed at children who are beginning to read.
The traditional tale from Japan retold for beginner readers ready to tackle slightly more complicated storylines and sentence structures. There was once a stonecutter who wasn't happy, so he wished to be lots of other things instead. Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton. Includes several pages of reading-related puzzles.
