The Magic Footprints: Green Banana (Banana Books) - Tapa blanda

A moving story about the gift of friendship by Melissa Balfour and Russell Julian for Egmont’s Green Banana series.

Tim is very shy. He likes playing with his dog Wig and his bird Zip. When Lola moves next door and gives him a mysterious birthday present, it is the start of a magical adventure!

Green bananas are divided into short, simple stories to develop reading techniques over a number of sessions. They are suitable for NC Level 1 readers. Green Bananas are carefully designed with education in mind, supporting children’s understanding of how to read longer books. Green bananas only use one clause in each sentence and rely on dialogue and speech bubbles to encourage reading aloud.
