Early Reader: Elsie and the Magic Biscuit Tin
Phil Earle, Jamie Littler
Early Readers are stepping stones from picture books to reading books. A blue Early Reader is perfect for sharing and reaading together. A red Early Reader is the next step on your reading journey.
Elsie’s always known that there’s something a little bit magical about her Grandma’s biscuit tin, and when she discovers that it can grant wishes, there’s only one thing she wants – chocolate! But Elsie’s wish to turn everything she touches into chocolate (even Grandma!) soon causes chaos.
Can she get the magic biscuit tin to grant her one last wish to help change everything back?
The second Early Reader story from a talented and unique voice in children’s fiction. Phil Earle is a CARNEGIE MEDAL shortisted author whose hard-hitting YA novels have been widely acclaimed. His first Early Reader, ALBERT AND THE GARDEN OF DOOM, and his first middle-grade title, DEMOLITION DAD, were released in 2015.
