Mr Trim and Miss Jumble (Paperback)

A new title in this highly-acclaimed series for beginner readers. When Mr Trim, the class teacher, wakes up feeling unwell, Miss Jumble is sent in as a supply teacher. While Mr Trim is always very neat and sensible and wants his class to be neat and sensible too, Miss Jumble wants them to have fun! She gets to work making the children as untidy as she is, taking them on lots of exciting trips along the way. But, although everyone loves Miss Jumble, they also miss the peace and quiet of Mr Trim. They needn't worry, though, as thanks to Quentin, the class hamster, Mr Trim and Miss Jumble fall in love and everyone gets the best of both worlds!; Using several different types of text - from signposts and speech bubbles to recipes - the Starters series fits guidelines in the National Literacy Strategy, which recommends using different media to teach children to read.
