A frog who lives in a deep, dark well, is very happy there. He ignores the calls of the birds to see the wider world. But then, one day, everything changes. A retelling of a popular traditional fable from Taiwan. The Frog in the Well is a phonics-based reading book, covering the fourth phase of letters and sounds that children learn in school, with the focus on alternative letters and sounds for graphemes and phonemes already met. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this 332-word story features a fully decodable text, suitable for ages 6 - 7. The Frog in the Well is part of Ransom Reading Stars, a structured programme for children learning to read. The series has fifteen levels: four phonics levels and eleven book band levels (Pink through to Lime).
