A retelling of the popular story - but this time in a world inhabited by dogs. Meet Artie the puppy and his attempts to please his older brother. The Sword in the Bone is a book-banded reading book for more confident readers, carefully levelled at White Book Band for guided reading. Beautifully illustrated throughout, this 1,128-word fiction story is suitable for ages 7 - 8.
The Sword in the Bone features a more demanding text with extended vocabulary and literary devices. It has more clauses in sentences, the use of metaphor is introduced, and the story plot is more involved.
