• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Although this is generally a storybook for children, JIMMY AND THE DODGER, like ALL its counterparts in the JIMMY DIARIES SERIES also go out to do a number of things. First, they have been made humorous enough to pull kids away from the TV. Second, they attempt to teach morals to children by examining a number of issues affecting children from parenting to bullying and the like to teach kids one or two home truths about growing up. Third, they are written with the ENGILS CLASS READER needs in mind. They go out of their way to teach lexical items in English including similes, metaphors and idioms. They are the FIRST OF THEIR KIND in this. They tell stories of Jimmy, a lonesome kid, which many children will identify with. Also, they oscillate from the suburbs of a city to the countryside to give kids a taste of both the town and country life. It is hoped that kids will find them interesting enough to read them again and again and therefore improve their written and spoken English by doing so.
