PM Purple: Town Mouse and Country Mouse (PM Traditional Tales and Plays) Levels 19, 20 x 6 Pack

In Aesop’s original fable, the Country Mouse lived simply but without fear. The moral was that a simple country life was better than a town life of luxury accompanied by terror. Centuries later, re-tellers of the story saw that a simple country life had its own terrors, and the fable was reshaped with a new moral: ‘We learn to handle familiar dangers, but new ones alarm us.’

Purple level titles introduce a variety of topics to promote reading for pleasure and offer plenty of opportunities to look at rhyme and rhythm within words to build fluency and phrasing.

Available for Levels 15-24, PM Traditional Tales and Plays retell classic tales in a simplified language and form that children can understand. Teachers use the tales in guided reading sessions and children can later read them with confidence and understanding. Parts are colour-coded for easy recognition.
