The Shy Calf (V CV CCV)
Kobi is a snow-white buffalo calf, and tonight he gets to lead the big New Year parade through the glittering city! But Kobi is shy, the crowds are loud, and Abi has made a very important promise: to stay by his friend’s side the whole way. Can a boy keep his word when the lanterns blaze and his tummy starts to rumble? This decodable reader practises open syllables in words like ‘go,’ ‘he,’ ’no,’ ‘shy,’ and ’try.’
