The Cats Who Fell Out of the Car

This book tells the story of two cats who are abandoned on the road next to Follifoot Farm.

They go into the farmyard to look for a good place to stay. They have not been to a farm before, neither have they seen or heard farm animals. They are surprised by the size of the animals they meet and the noises they make. The day turns out to be eventful for all of them.

The story is told in six chapters mainly in the present tense.

The split vowel digraphs a-e, i-e, o-e are used in the words 'escape, place, gate, takes, like, inside, home'.

The vowel digraph ew is introduced in the word 'new'.

Some of the high-frequency 'tricky' words included in the story are: one two four come some her here there their where want what was who Mrs friendly lives loves
