Sue Palmer full of praise for Ragtag Rhymes
Here's what she said about the new series:

"Dr Seuss for the 21st century - a joyful blend of humour, rhyme and nonsense with real child appeal. It's great to find really good books that make practising and applying phonic knowledge meaningful and fun. If we want children to really enjoy reading while they are learning to read, we need more books like these!"

Literacy advisors have also welcomed Ragtag Rhymes:

"The rhymes in these books will encourage young children to play with language. These books are a great resource with lots of potential for children's independent application into writing."
Christine Barker, literacy and CLLD consultant, Cambridgeshire

"KS2/3 teachers are particularly interested in them for phonics interventions, as the off-beat humour is appropriate at that age."
Alison Bailey, literacy and CLLD consultant, York
