Description

Harry the hamster is ill, so Mum and Pig take him to the vet. That cost thirty quid. Then Suki got her hand stuck down the drain on the High Street and they had to call the fire brigade to get her out. Suki's (ex)-boyfriend Kim and fireman Sam (I know!) end up in a fight. Then Gran got herself arrested whilst skateboarding and she lost her teeth. Somebody lost Vampire Baby, too. Not bad for the finale. It's almost like on TV! Pig's Season's Finale is one of six books in Set One of the Pig series, published by Ransom Publishing, a specialist publisher for reluctant readers and struggling readers. The Pig reading books all feature Peter Ian Green - although everybody calls him Pig, even his teachers. The 'Pig' reading series offers friendly, fast-paced and extremely funny stories in first-person diary format, for readers who want a great story in a quick read. Pig's Season's Finale is ideal for reluctant readers aged 7 to 12 with a reading age of 8 - 9 years.

Author description

Barbara Catchpole taught for over forty years before becoming a full time writer. Her interest in special needs education and disability issues was first sparked by her middle son, who was born profoundly deaf. Barbara has taught as a Special Needs Coordinator and has held leadership positions in several schools, including Academies. She has also worked as SENCo in a secure training centre. Barbara writes primarily for reluctant and struggling readers, with the aim of entertaining the reader and developing empathy for the characters. Pig is her finest example to date.
