Professor Green and his friends go into the jungle to find the black and white snake. They meet some interesting animals along the way, but the black and white snake is hard to catch. The Macmillan Explorers Phonics bring first language teaching methods to reading lessons in international classrooms. They focus on how reading works, so children are able to read new texts and pronounce new words more easily. The Macmillan Explorers Phonics complement the Macmillan English Explorers and can also be used alongside any other reading programme.
