"Find out what happens when Floppy takes a juicy bone in this exciting Read with Oxford story, ideal for children who are developing early reading skills."--Back cover.

This Read with Biff, Chip & Kipper Collection contains 4 carefully levelled storybooks for children who are learning to read. It includes two Level 3 Phonics books which practise sounds and letters; and two Level 3 First Stories to introduce first words and develop early reading skills.

The second edition of The Floppy Infant is devoted to the recognition and diagnosis of the floppy infant syndrome. It includes a review of some of the more important causes and provides a practical approach to the assessment and management such children require. The text of the first edition has been completely revised, but the emphasis has not changed: it remains an immensely practical and up-to-date handbook for the clinician.
