Stormy Night

Scooby-Doo! Picture Clue Books #16

by Robin Wasserman, Duendes del Sur (Illustrator)

Scooby-Doo is an 'Ameri-canine' icon, the most beloved cartoon pooch of the past three generations. The snack-sniffling sleuth and his pals are in the midst of a huge popularity and awareness upswing

The Picture Clue books are based on the traditional "rebus Reader" - using a picture as a tool for learning a word. On the sample spread, you can see where a picture is substituted for a word. This gives a young reader a sense of pride that she is "reading" the story. All pictures and vocabulary are on flashcards at the end of the book.

((Scooby)) and ((Shaggy)) are all alone on a dark and stormy night. They think that there's a ((monster)) in the house, but it looks more like a mystery!

Scooby Doo #16 – STORMY NIGHT
Picture-based words for new readers.
“Ánd they all had a wonderful night together in the big, dark, cozy house.”

[Kimmy · Rating 4 out of 5]

We are a Scooby-Doo loving household, so we loved this book. It is for beginning readers and has pictures in place of some words. My kids loved this! They were able to read further on their own and it excited them about reading.
