Yr1 Ds has been struggling a bit with the comprehension of words, turns of phrase etc in some books such as paddington bear. The school have suggested we bring in reading books from home so Ds chose mr GUm from the bookshop today. Would this be acceptable to the school or would it be frowned upon?

Is your son reading Mr Gum? ... Ours read this in year 3. Tbh though, I think the Mr Gum series is awful!! Dd loves it, but I just find it stupid, nonsense, and gramatically wrong!
