Description

Theres a lot more to riding a skateboard than just jumping on and whizzing along. Some skateboarders do special moves and tricks on their boards. Like surfers and skiers, they twist, turn, flip and jump. Skateboarders try not to fall off. Concrete is much harder than water or snow!

Author description

Series editor and author of the Red Rocket reading program, Pam Holden has more than 30 years specialist experience in literacy. As a Reading Recovery teacher she has worked one-to-one with hundreds of children struggling with literacy. Pam's pupils have also included those approaching English as a second language, and children who are advanced and require extension. This experience has given the author a rare insight into the literacy process and has enabled her to identify many key elements that consistently block children's progress.
