But when they find a baby bird that’s fallen from its nest, they know there’s no time for play.
They need to help the bird — keep it safe and help it get back to its nest.
The Besties to the Rescue is book one in a brilliant new junior fiction series from dynamic duo Felice Arena and Tom Jellett.
It’s a fun, light-hearted read, packed with funnies and delivered in an easy-to-read format with large text, short chapters and Jellett’s funky illustrations on every page.
This is a perfect book and series for kids starting to read independently.
The characters are real and relatable for kids, as is the plot. It’s a fun and simple story, easy for kids to follow as they focus on reading the words.
The back of the book is also filled with awesome extras, including how-to advice (for book one it’s about looking after baby birds), a copy of Jurassic Yard, a hilarious comic penned by Oliver, the musical chords and lyrics of Ruby’s song, Little Bird, and the Besties’ best jokes about dinosaurs.
If you’re looking for a new series for your junior reader to get stuck into or you want to provide an easy first book for them to try reading independently, I highly recommend The Besties to the Rescue.
