Dive into the stretchy, sticky world of natural slime, revealing how creatures like the hagfish use it to survive, and how slime plays a surprising role inside us too. Packed with amazing facts and slimy science, this book is the perfect read for those who love gross-but-great discoveries. This KS2 reading book is from Readerful's Independent Library. It is for children aged 8 to 9 to read without support. Readerful is a reading library specially designed to motivate children to read more. The series offers contemporary, inclusive books for children from 4 to 11 years, including:

Books for Sharing: picture books to be read aloud by an adult for inspiring reading sessions

Independent Library: fiction, graphic texts, character mini-series and non-fiction for children to read independently

Rise: fully decodable books for older struggling readers to read independently. How Readerful works:

Read aloud the Books for Sharing for magical reading sessions that motivate children to read more.

Then encourage children to choose a book to read by themselves, from Readerful's Independent Library or from Rise. You'll find links between the books' topics, vocabulary, characters and authors - all designed to keep children reading, boost their vocabulary, strengthen their comprehension skills, and deepen their understanding of the world around them.
