The Snotty Dribbler: A Bloomsbury Young Reader : White Book Band

A heartwarming story about siblings, ideal for children practising reading at home or in school. Blay thinks being an older brother is so uncool. He finds his baby sister Bethany boring, annoying, and very snotty.

But when Bethany is taken to hospital one night, Blay starts to worry. Maybe he does care about Bethany just a little bit… This family tale from storyteller Effua Gleed is perfect for Key Stage 1 (KS1) children who are learning to read by themselves.

It features colour illustrations by Kamala Nair and a heartfelt sibling relationship that many children will relate to.
