A gentle first step into decodable reading

This Level 1 book uses regularly spelled words based on 42 letter sounds. Tricky words appear upfront, with light type guiding letters not sounded out. Comprehension questions, discussion topics, and adult guidance support learning.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.
