Dr. Can Do’s workshop is a disaster - you can’t even see the floor! Can one very grumpy inventor actually tidy up without getting distracted? When he spots a huge pile of stone he’ll never use, he hatches a wild plan involving lava, redstone, and a clever disposal device. But will tidying really stick, or will the mess creep back?

This decodable reader practises the oi/oy phonogram in words like ‘join,’ ‘joy,’ ‘choice,’ and ‘coils.’

Step into the leafy world of Minecraft forests, where towering oaks and birches stretch high above your head! What creeps between the shadowy trunks when the sun goes down? Why do players need trees so badly, and what happens if we chop down too many in the real world? From gathering seeds to spotting mobs hiding in the green, this adventure shows why forests matter everywhere. This decodable reader practises the ’ee’ sound in words like ‘creep,’ ‘green,’ ’trees,’ ‘see,’ and ‘seeds.’

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM! Who is shaking the walls of Skel’s quiet farmhouse in the middle of the night?
