Any books recommended for Cambridge Starters Exam

cowboymama

My boy is to sit in the Cambridge Starters Exam this March. Apart from the past papers, any books recommended to prepare the exam especially on the reading and writing part. Besides, I have no idea the average vocabulary required for Starters exam. Anyone can share?

Thanks a lot.

Cowboymama,

You should  have a handbook when you apply to sit the exam, all vocabulary was listed in the handbook. If you haven't got this handbook, you can download it from the web site of British Council

My son said the exam is not difficult, don't be nervous.

Hi, Sheila

Thanks a lot for your info and advice. I just downloaded the handbook from British Council.  I can be more relaxed now as the vocab list is not  difficult and  I think my kid can manage it before exam. Thanks again.
