Reading Intervention – Mrs Rowley and Mrs GerrardWeek 8 Monday 30th August
The Ugly Five by Julia DonaldsonPrediction
Blurb
Who's that singing on the savannah? It's the top-five ugly animals in Africa! The wildebeest,
warthog, vulture, hyena and marabou stork swagger proudly across the savannah, rejoicing in
their ugliness - and delighting their babies, who think they're perfect just the way they are.
Inspired by the real-life Ugly Five safari animals, Julia Donaldson and Axel Scheffler's brand-
new picture book is a jubilant celebration of animals who are often rather unloved. The funny,
heart-warming rhyme is a joy to read aloud, while bold, comical illustrations bring the savannah
spectacularly to life.

Imagine by Alison Lester
Prediction
Blurb
Imagine yourself deep in the jungle, under the sea, in a land of ice and snow, on a farm, in the
moonlit bush, on an African plain, in a prehistoric swamp. Then turn the page and find all the
animals living there.
Imagine is a wonderful introduction to the natural world with pictures to explore again and again.
