Description

Enchanting retelling of the classic story with easy reading text for children beginning to read alone. Clara's adventure begins on Christmas Eve with an amazing present - a magic doll. Soon she is flying in a sleigh to the Land of Sweets where she meets the Sugarplum Fairy. The Usborne Reading Programme has been developed in conjunction with reading experts from Roehampton University. Also available with an audio CD with a dramatic listen-along recording with music and sound effects, followed by a read-along version with prompts for page turns.
