Books with title The Lonely Penguin

Building off of the popularity of social media, the story of Palaki the penguin relates to the reader through his own blog posts. Unfortunately, Palaki swims off in the wrong direction and ends up in a climate that is far too warm for a penguin. Luckily, a group of humans at the Wellington Zoo are kind enough to help nurse Palaki back to health so that he can make his journey home to Antarctica. Young readers will be exposed to blogging and the importance of nurturing wildlife in this fun and informative reader.

Oxford Literacy has been specifically designed to support guided reading in the first three years of school. The Oxford Literacy fiction and non-fiction guided reading texts recognise that a guided reading group in a 'real' classroom never has every student on the same level; therefore, the texts and supporting teaching versions allow educators to work with small groups of students across a range of levels within their stage of reading. Because Oxford Literacy is a guided reading programme, a single title has limited use in a classroom; therefore, it is recommended that educators use multiple copies of a title in guided reading groups to achieve maximum benefit from Oxford Literacy.
