Meg and Greg: Frank and the Skunk

by Elspeth Rae, Rowena Rae, Elisa Gutierrez (Illustrator)

A decodable book featuring four phonics stories specially designed to help children of all abilities overcome language-based learning difficulties. Besties Meg and Greg are off to sleep-away camp for the summer! Along with your standard camp activities (swimming and making crafts) the duo have a run-in with a  skunk ,  sing  a silly  song  about a  king , go on a canoe trip that has one glitch after another, and make a mess in the  lodge  with a fresh batch of  fudge ! Frank and the Skunk is the second book in the Meg and Greg series designed for shared reading between a child learning to read or struggling to read and an experienced reader, following A Duck in a Sock . Inside you'll find four stories that introduce one new phonogram (a letter or combination of letters that represent a sound) in each nk ,  ng ,  tch  and  dge phonograms. The stories have special features to help a child with dyslexia or another language-based learning difficulty find reading success.

The Meg and Greg books belong in every primary classroom for all students to read, and not just struggling readers!

The carefully leveled text and engaging stories will appeal to children’s interests and provide the supports they need as they decode the intricacies of the reading world. The structure in the book is perfect for shared reading between teacher and students and shared peer reading. An added bonus are the supplemental materials included at the back of the book!

I highly recommend purchasing the books in the Meg and Greg series!

Thank you NetGalley and Orca books for the e-ARC.
