By (author): James Riordan

Illustrated by: Brendan Kearney

A delightful retelling of a classic story with a twist, ideal for children practising their reading at home or in school. The little swan is not quite like his brothers and sisters. He''s small and brown and just doesn''t fit in. So he sets off alone into the big, wide world. Will the ugly little swan find a friend? Will he discover who he truly is? This heartwarming fairytale with a twist from well-known author James Riordan is perfect for children who are learning to read by themselves and for Key Stage 1. It features engaging illustrations from Brendan Kearney and quirky characters young readers will find hard to resist. Bloomsbury Young Readers are the perfect way to get children reading, with book-banded stories by brilliant authors like Julia Donaldson, packed with gorgeous colour illustrations. They also include inside cover notes to help adults reading with children and to give some ideas for activities related to the stories. ''Every child needs a Bloomsbury Young Reader. Fun, stretching, just the right length, full of adventurous vocabulary and punctuation.'' (Julie-Ann McCulloch, Teacher) Book Band: Turquoise Ideal for ages 6+ See more
