Short Too! A Second Book of Very Short Stories Award-winning author by Kevin Crossley-Holland (author)

Another fast fix of bite-sized fiction from the wonderful Kevin Crossley-Holland. Snappy stories of two pages at most: mini tales for maximum effect.

Packed with fantastic, funny and thought-provoking tales that slot quickly into lessons and free moments, this inspiring book is a true classroom essential.
