Annabelle knows that stealing is wrong, but after having taken bread from the local cafe she is met by an elderly wizard duck.

Educating Through Reading - The book is written to allow children to learn to read through rhyme. The simple style allows children to sound words out and recognise them. There is regular repetition of words which allows children to become familiar with larger words, having to read them more often. There may be a number of words that they have not read before or do not recognise - this is intended to spark conversation. The book has bright illustrations for the younger reader which are eye catching and detailed.
