Introducing the Flitlits to Young Readers


At your place, or any space where flowers grow or rivers flow, spring up!

Spot folk at plots that time forgot within a shaded shelter.

A map at hand lays out the land.

It is a hidden corner.

Funny fables come your way that share the far folk's daring days.

They may be tricky, good or better.

The folk flit and swish.

They float when they wish.

Follow them soon.

THE FLITLITS


ï»ï»ï»About Introductory Book 7 / OTTO ZOOM / Confident Reading / UK English Version


A family at the land of Seldom See is based at long Pull Plot. 

The busy corner of the distant land is a dynamic spot.

The plot is home to family Zoom who widen, shorten, pinch and loom.

All their clothes are made to order. 

The family spring to tall, or taller and shrink again to short, or shorter.

They also spread to wide, or wider.

Young Otto Zoom puffs out his chest and spreads his grin from right to left.

He likes to win games and long words, for example, 'harpsichord'.

STORY 7 discovers Otto entering a Pull-In Dental Centre.

A dentist asks him with a grin, "Could you please drop down your chin?

I'll check each tooth but must begin with a small mouth, or else fall in!"

Later, Otto chalks out marks and lays out pegs at a green named Shake-a-Leg.

He greets his good friends Jake MacJake, Posy Pose and a serious snake.

They choose to play Break, Shake and Fake.

The take-charge snake roots out bluffing and mistakes.  

Who rattles jangling skeleton keys and why is Otto far from pleased? 



Industry Reviews

School/s Pilot Work Feedback (Credited with all Mandatory Consents):


"I am truly in awe of Eiry Rees Thomas. These books are classics and foster attention and a love for the written word. They open up discussions on many topics and encourage exploration and off screen play."


"On first encountering the Flitlit concept, I was overwhelmed. How do you begin to describe this incredible world? It is unlike anything I have experienced before. Each word on the page is placed to make the whole experience so expansive and rich in detail."


"The setting is a magical place that can be visited any time, anywhere and which stays within your imagination forever."


"It is the lyricism of the prose that knocks you off your feet and lulls you in like a siren's song. The employment of rhythm and rhyme creates a magical syncopation that builds anticipation as the stories are read aloud."


"The Guide for Educators is truly outstanding and will be an asset in helping children to grab on to that spark of imagination."


"We are deeply embroiled in 'Flitlit Fever' in the classroom. In fact, it has taken over our lives somewhat! "


"We have read the stories, analysed the language, looked for poetic devices, written reviews, composed Flitlit anthems, designed book covers, written raps, de-constructed characters, examined story lines... and even tried creating new characters and plots!"


"It has been a thoroughly enjoyable time that has truly harnessed the enthusiasm of the children."


 "Eiry Rees Thomas and her Flitlits make learning a joy,"
