Reading Champion: Ug and the Cave Bear

This story is part of Reading Champion, a series carefully linked to book bands to encourage independent reading skills, developed with Dr Sue Bodman and Glen Franklin of UCL Institute of Education (IOE)

Fantastic, original stories are accompanied by engaging artwork and a reading activity. Each book has been carefully graded so that it can be matched to a child's reading ability, encouraging reading for pleasure. Perfect for 7-9-year-olds or those reading book band white.

Ug's family needs the fire for their cave. It keeps them warm and safe from wild animals. One day, Ug is so busy painting that he forgets all about it...
