Hi everyone, Our topic next term is People Who help Us. We have got lots of non-fiction books and intend to arrange visits from various people but I am stuck when it comes to thinking about which texts to use for Literacy. The Jolly Postman springs to mind but I'm struggling to think of any others. Can anyone help? Thanks Rosie

I would be very grateful for any ideas, as I have been working with nursery children for the last 3 years and am unsure at what level reception chidlren are at.
