Bob has not only opened the door to the amazing world of literary heritage texts but has opened my eyes to the wealth of opportunities and experiences that these wondrous texts can give to the next generation. The book leads teachers and their pupils on a journey to mastery of English through the study of the well-chosen, language-rich collection of poetry and prose. The -˜Bob says' hints and tips throughout the book give further support and guidance on how best to nurture the writer within all children, and give teachers -˜wings to fly' with well-crafted and developed units of works. The Opening Doors series is an exceptional tool in supporting the teaching of the 2014 national curriculum and inspiring learners to be masters of the English language - in my opinion it's a must for all teachers. Thank you Bob!
