Level 1 Biff, Chip and Kipper Stories: Decode and Develop are six exciting new wordless stories in the Oxford Reading Tree series. They continue to provide storylines full of humour and drama, with familiar settings and characters. The wordless stories introduce the characters and children learn that the pictures tell a story, where a story begins and how to turn the pages. They will also begin to identify sounds for objects they see in the pictures. They encourage discussion with an adult through the new-style inside cover notes, which provide advice to help adults explore the story with the child.Help with children's reading development is also available at www.oxfordowl.co.uk.
