Product Information

We think our teachers and designers are pretty amazing, because they’ve created some Twinkl Original eBooks based on this topic for you to read and enjoy with your children. This resources will encourage and support pupils to explore unknown vocabulary, classify tiered vocabulary independently, explore the wider application of newly acquired vocabulary and enhance classroom vocabulary display which ultimately leads to improved retention. I had to read all of the main text, then the little text and then the text of the labels and other background ones.

Traction Man Is Here! by Mini Grey | Goodreads

as it follows the adventures of Traction Man throughout his adventures (led by the imagination of a little boy). The children in year one loved the simplicity of this story and the literacy lessons around it allowed them to focus on speech bubbles which aided their final piece which was creating their own comic strip. There is a range of differentiation included in this resource to cater for all abilities in Year 1 and Year 2.Her books include Egg Drop, The Pea and the Princess (shortlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal), Biscuit Bear (winner of the Nestlé Children's Book Prize Gold Award), Traction Man is Here (winner of the Boston Horn Book Award and shortlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal), The Adventures of the Dish and the Spoon (winner of the Nestlé Children's Book Prize Bronze Award and winner of the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal), and Traction Man meets Turbodog.

She studied for an MA in Sequential Illustration at Brighton under the tutelage of John Vernon Lord. With bright, appealing artwork, and an engaging story that emphasizes the boy's imagination - I particularly liked the Poisonous Dishcloth monster, and the Scrubbing Brush dog - this is a book that young kids with a sense of humor, and a fondness for imaginative play will appreciate! Her books includeEgg Drop, The Pea and the Princess (shortlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal), Biscuit Bear(winner of the Nestlé Children's Book Prize Gold Award), Traction Man is Here (winner of the Boston Horn Book Award and shortlisted for the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal), The Adventures of the Dish and the Spoon (winner of the Nestlé Children's Book Prize Bronze Award and winner of the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal), and Traction Man meets Turbodog. Among my favorite illustrations are the letter on the title page, the Traction Man box, Traction Man diving in the sink, Traction Man saving the dollies, Traction Man fighting the Mysterious Toes, Traction Man in his new outfit, Traction Man rescuing the young spoons, and Traction Man and Scrubbing Brush relaxing. After the events of Into the Woods (2007), the Eden family threw away a magic musical pipe that would grant them any wish, but now that flute has found its way back to them.It is also a book that many adults should enjoy reading to children as it is reminiscent of their own childhood, remembering where many a good adventure was thought of featuring Barbie and Action Man, particularly when Traction Man delivers the line “Think nothing of it ladies” after rescuing three dolls from the Wicked Professor Spade. We are always trying to teach children to include adjectives in their writing to make it more descriptive. I wanted to pour over all the detailed illustrations even now, and I'm sure I would have had it out for hours when I was little, looking at every inch of the pictures.
