KEY VERBS with ROBIN is a series of 15 readers designed to help young children learn about verbs through delightful, age-appropriate stories. It is divided into three levels—Easy Start, Beginner and Elementary. Each level focuses on a range of verb tenses or forms, which increase in difficulty as the series progresses.

Most of the key verbs selected are featured more than once, reinforcing learning, and verb reference tables give an overview of the tenses or forms in question.

A 'More to the point' section at the end of each book gives grammar tips and insights for parents as they read with their children.

The stories feature a young girl called Tilly, and her family and friends. As they enjoy the amusing tales, children will familiarise themselves with a variety of useful verbs in various tenses and forms.

Tilly's mum takes part in a charity race. Tilly and Dad cheer her on. But when most of the runners have finished the race, there is still no sign of Mum. Tilly and Dad wait... and wait... At long last, Mum arrives...riding on a 'camel' . Can you guess what happened? Read and find out.
