Emotionally powerful books to prompt meaningful thought and discussion

Ishi is always out on the waves. Like her aunty before her, she loves surfing and is actually quite good at it. When the National Junior Surfing Competition comes to Kerala, Ishi knows this is her opportunity to compete. But, when things don't go as planned, Ishi will need to call on her friends and family for support. Reflect is a series of emotionally powerful fiction and non-fiction with realistic settings, carefully crafted to promote thoughtful discussions and develop higher-level reading comprehension. Written by top authors and developed with Literacy expert Nikki Gamble, these are books you can trust to engage, entertain and support children's personal development and wellbeing. The books are finely levelled, making it easy to match every child to books with the right depth and complexity, and helping them to progress. Each book contains inside cover notes to help children deepen their understanding and support their reading comprehension. Teaching notes on Oxford Owl offer cross-curricular links to Relationships Education and support literacy skills.
