The Dragon in the Sewer — Cindy Baldwin

Emerald/Band 15 books provide a widening range of genres including science fiction and biography, prompting more ways to respond to texts. On the way to the library with Mum, Ava finds a dragon in the sewer beneath the city. Can she use the breathing techniques her doctor taught her to help the young dragon control its fire-breath? Pages 46 and 47 allow children to re-visit the content of the book, supporting comprehension skills, vocabulary development and recall. Ideas for reading in the back of the book provide practical support and stimulating activities.
