Synopsis

Carlo likes reading everywhere and everything. He reads his bedroom, his breakfast - he even reads his dad! That's because everything in his colourful world has a clear label attached with its name on it - slippers, Crackers the cat, fly, teapot, bin, grater and milk. Children learning to read can point, say and read through the day with Carlo, a sympathetic and likeable character. And if the reading gets frustrating, Carlo doesn't worry about it - he likes galloping too!

Media Reviews
It is a book with a long shelf-life...its beauty is in its simplicity and the recognition that reading is all around us and doesn't have to be confined between the covers of books. * The Guardian *
...an inviting proposition for beginner readers as well as an attractive word book to share with the very young. * The Bookseller *
