Themes: Family stories/ Series
Sage, the middle sister in the family, is delighted when she
is detailed off to take the class toy bear, Mr
Floppy Ribbon home for an over-nighter. However, when she realises that
with this comes responsibility and especially the task of having to write a
report about the visit, it is lucky she has her big sister Saffron to turn to.
It was time Sage (the middle sister in the family) had her
own story as she has been there waiting, a little noisily, in the wings, in the three
other tiles in this absolutely charming series about a most unique and quirky
family.

A great read aloud to a small group – small because half the
fun is in the writer’s illustrations that need to be seen as you are hearing
the story. Easy to read and extra large print make this very suitable for
emerging readers.
