Collins Big Cat has teamed up with award-winning educational developers, Shoo Fly, to create new cross-curricular e-Resources to accompany the Collins Big Cat reading series. Collins Big Cat e-Resources are rooted in the books, but extend learning to develop every aspect of pupils' literacy skills.

e-Resources contain:

* a beautifully animated version of the book, including audio and music, to inspire children of all abilities
* a sound bank to develop speaking and listening skills
* up to ten interactive whiteboard activities and activity sheets to develop and extend learning
* Story Creator software, to help children convert reading into writing by using images from the book to create their own texts
* comprehensive teacher's notes.

These resources can be used on PCs and interactive whiteboards.

It's fun to play outside, and these three children enjoy it in all seasons, summer, autumn, winter and spring - whatever the weather! Each season is evocatively illustrated by Tim
Hopgood - 2008 winner of Booktrust's Best Emerging Illustrator Award, developing the text and encouraging discussion.
