Hooked on Books is a dynamic Children’s Educational Theatre company traveling to schools across South Africa. We specialise in creating a love of reading from an early age and have been creating readers since 1993. Our passion for theatre and storytelling enables us to bring books to life and get children Hooked on books! Fund raising is through direct mail, newspaper, television, and radio appeals to individuals, companies, and organizations; by newsletter communication with members; by matching funds programs with General Electric; by applying for grants from appropriate agencies. Elsewhere, @padstowbooks revealed that Pamela Butchart's To Wee or Not To Weeand Tom McLaughlin's The Day That Aliens Nearly Ate Our Brains are popular choices with their customers, while @writing1to6 recommended the Rover series by Roddy Doyle.

You will keep all rights to your book – we don’t try to make money from authors’ books except insofar as our costs have to be covered.Q: You say that Americans are more cognizant of these processed foods, and that food giants like Nestle are producing “better” processed food. What has been the result of this movement? In this question-and-answer, Moss explains why American food giants “hook” us into choosing processed food over healthier alternatives. Reading is crucial to children’s development and potential for success in life. Research shows that children who read books often at age 10 and continue to read through adolescence, gain higher results in maths, vocabulary and spelling tests at age 16 than those who read less regularly. And then you have the Sea Quest series to devour, starring Max, Lia and the Robobeasts, plus Team Hero. In fact, Beast Quest goes beyond books - it's a whole world including collectible cards, and many primary school playgrounds ring to the sound of, 'Let's play Beast Quest!' Whisper it, but Beast Quest is now also a console game.

Each workbook begins with a review of the previous lessons and steps, to make sure the child has mastered the learning before moving on to the next step. The lessons start by systematically introducing a short-vowel word family, such as -at, -an, or -ap. By combining these word families with simple consonant sounds, a child will begin to read words such as cat, can, and cap. Comprehension is strengthened as a child matches words to pictures and engages in fun activities that provide additional practice with the newly learned words. Every lesson is followed by a simple story composed of the words that have just been introduced, to solidify the learning and turn the child into a reader! The lessons also present common sight words through fun co-reading poems and contain sections that encourage writing about something that has been read. After learning short-vowel word families, learners will move on to beginning and ending blends, digraphs, inflectional endings, and more. Every step is designed to turn a child into a successful reader! Book Talk - a whole class comprehension and a targeted group approach, ensuring all individuals are accountable
