What Rose Doesn't Know: A First Book: Second Reading Level

by Gina Clegg Erickson, Kerri Gifford Russell (Illustrator)

"Get Ready, Get Set, Read!" are illustrated stories that will delight beginning readers. They are designed to be used as children's first reading book. Each "Get Ready, Get Set, Read!" volume uses a limited sight vocabulary and introduces a word family such as "at" or "ish." By adding to these root words, a child's reading vocabulary virtually explodes (cat, bat, hat, sat, etc.). There are five sets of "Get Ready, Get Set, Read!" books. Each set focuses on specific reading skills and reviews these skills in two "Bring-It-All-Together" books. For more information about the program, see the last page and inside back cover of this book. "Get Ready, Get Set, Read!" books not only bring children reading success, they also make reading enjoyable. They provide what is often missing in early books...engaging stories and high quality art. Young readers, parents, and teachers will turn to "Get Ready, Get Set, Read!" again and again!
