When we make new roads, we need machines to help us. When we build new schools and houses, we need machines. Big machines are strong. They do work that is too hard for us. Some machines help to load ships and lift heavy things. Some machines move earth and rocks.

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.
