Sight words, combined with the rhythm and rhyme of the narrative make this text a perfect first choice for beginning readers. It's dawn on the savanna. The light colours the sky like nowhere else on earth, and suddenly there are the sounds of a new day - Safari day! Elephants, lions, giraffes, zebras, hippos - we meet them all through a bouncy, lively text that's as fun to read as the animals are to look at.
