The "Rhyme and Analogy" series aims to support children's early rhyme and letter knowledge. Knowledge of commonly used rhymes can be used to recognize and read new words by the strategy of analogy. The story rhymes are built around a graded structure of rhyming words, with four clue rhymes being introduced in each story. The stories are lively and humorous and introduce the clue rhymes in a real reading context. They are supported by a teacher's guide and photocopiable resources, and are at the centre of the "Rhyme and Analogy" programme.

This book is aimed at children in primary school. This book is part of a reading scheme, meaning that it is a book aimed at children who are learning to read. This reading scheme has multiple levels. This reading book uses the Synthetic phonics method. (This can also be referred to as 'blended phonics' or 'inductive phonics'). A phonics approach concentrates on teaching children how to map between sounds and spellings, allowing them to decode written words into their constituent sounds. Phonics skill thus involves being able to split the written word 'cat' into the phonemes /k/, /a/, /t/, and to map from letter 'c' to phoneme /k/, from letter 'a' to phoneme /ae/ and from letter 't' to phoneme /t/. Decoding skill is useful when reading unfamiliar words which use regular spelling sequences. In Synthetic Phonics, children are taught to sound and blend from the start of reading tuition. Children are taught a small group of letter sounds and then shown how these can be co-articulated to pronounce unfamiliar words. Other groups of letters are then taught and the children blend them in order to pronounce new words. The pronunciation of the word is discovered through sounding and blending, and spelling by mapping sounds to letters. Consonant blends that cannot be read by blending are explicitly taught.

There are 16 pages in this book. This is a reference book. This book was published 1996 by Oxford University Press .
