Books with author Richard Browne

Lucent Books' American History series examines the eras, events, and movements that have shaped U.S. history. Compelling narratives offer a wealth of factual information and also provide readers with insight into the significance of the past and its many legacies. Fully cited quotations from historical figures, eyewitnesses, letters, speeches, and writings bring vibrancy and authority to the text. Sidebars, time lines, indexes, and annotated bibliographies appear in all volumes.

A major reading scheme for the teaching of reading and the development of literacy throughout the primary years. Whisked Away is a compelling collection of new poems, written especially for more than one voice. Read aloud, these poems become conversations, chants, demands and spoken thoughts. Strange stories come alive with drama and atmosphere. Notes at the back give practical guidance - on volume, pace, actions and sound effects - ensuring that you get the most out of every poem . . . and every poem gets the most out of you! Whisked Away is one of eleven books that make up Extended Reading Level B, for children in Year 6/Primary 7. This phase of Cambridge Reading aims to develop children's knowledge about language, its vocabulary, forms, structures and styles.
