Reviews

[Sarah Winters · Rating 4 out of 5]

I thought this was a great book for guided reading in kindergarten. It is great for emergent readers because it is a book most students can read. It is predictable so students are able to read the first words than figure out the hard words by looking at pictures. Recommended for beginning readers in kindergarten.
