My Year 2 children (ages 6+) loved that Goat and Stoat could not share the boat and wrote labels on the side of the boat, claiming the boat for themselves! To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Features a hilarious, tongue-twister text, slapstick humour, bright neon artwork and colourful characters. With its clever rhyme scheme and tongue-twister text, adults will have lots of fun reading this book aloud and children will love the silly humour and delight in seeing the animal antics unfold.

A small format book series is available individually in paperback or hardcover, though the paperbacks are all collected in a single boxed set.

Polly Crosby tells ReadingZone about her novel, This Tale is Forbidden (Scholastic), a fractured fairy tale set in a dystopian world. At home, you could explore the idea of floating and sinking by making simple boats out of aluminium foil (aluminium food trays are particularly good). Stoat is floating in his favourite boat until he is disturbed by a goat who rather fancies a float in the boat!

We are happy to create the perfect unique gift for a loved one or create a feature piece within your home. With simple rhyming text and phonic repetition specially designed to develop essential language and early reading skills. Personalized advertising may be considered a “sale” or “sharing” of information under California and other state privacy laws, and you may have a right to opt out. The repetition and zany story will keep little ones engaged and joining in without even realising that they are building on their reading skills at the same time! Some of the technologies we use are necessary for critical functions like security and site integrity, account authentication, security and privacy preferences, internal site usage and maintenance data, and to make the site work correctly for browsing and transactions.

You have to design, build and test a foil boat which is strong enough to float even the youngest goat safely across a river. Reflecting the wordplay of fables and poetry this ridiculous and sub-realistic character makes one of the pieces of my Rhyme collection.

A raucous, rhyming tale with a fun tongue-twister text, bright neon artwork and hilarious animal antics. However, the skills and processes you practice whilst doing Goat on a Boat, and the areas of science you’re exploring, are similar to the work professional scientists and engineers do.

The larger-format series adds value when your little reader is more independent and can be trusted to handle something less rugged than a board book.
