Books with author W. J. Wright

Children's illustrated story in rhyming verse. Cyril is a forgetful squirrel who keeps on forgetting where he's put his acorns, even when he buries them under something he thinks he can't miss! A funny tale which teaches children about trees growing and the cycle of the seasons, with bold, vibrant illustrations. Young children can also click on the acorns for interactive counting up to five.Cyril the Squirrel is the first title in the series, Cyril the Squirrel and Friends. Other books available include Brian the Lion, Myrtle the Turtle and Lola Clare the Polar Bear. The books are set in varied contexts around the world. Suitable to be read aloud to toddlers and preschool children, but also for older children (up to age 8) as they are learning to read, this series of books deliberately includes a few longer or slightly less common words (like "plucky" and "glisten") in order to encourage early absorption of a wider English vocabulary, as this has been proved to benefit literacy and development later on. The rhyming character names also teach children about the idiosyncrasies of English pronunciation. Besides this, the books remain funny, happy animal stories for all children to enjoy.

Time to sharpen the stakes and start slaying the undead. Because if you gaze long into a vampire’s eyes, the vampire gazes also into you. Then it glamors you. And kills you.
