Description
A new title in the fantastic Usborne Reading Programme, based on an old African folktale and aimed at children who are beginning to read. The African folktale retold for beginner readers ready to tackle slightly more complicated storylines and sentence structures. Once upon a time, zebras didn't have stripes. Then along came a greedy baboon... Part of the Usborne Reading Programme developed with reading experts at the University of Roehampton. Includes several pages of reading-related puzzles.
Author Biography
Lesley dreamed of being a writer, but studied law as her mother insisted she had "something to fall back on". Since joining Usborne Publishing, she has written and edited hundreds of books, from funny rhyming stories to an award-winning history book. Nowadays, she is often found recording books, too, in Usborne's very own recording studio.
