My DD is 5 and in Y1. She has been given reading books for the last week which have lots of sentences starting 'Next day' they did such and such' but she insists that this is wrong and it should be 'The next day'. Instinctively I agree with her but I have absolutely no idea if it is acceptable to begin with 'Next' instead of 'The'. Can anyone enlighten me?
