And here are some learning to read chapter books that are fabulous. All of these are series:
Cocoa and Cowgirl Kate by Erica Silverman
Houndsley and Catina by James Howe
Three series by Cynthia Rylant: Henry and Mudge/ Mr. Putter and Tabby/ Poppleton
(Pottleton is my favorite)
We also love Zelda and Ivy by Laura Kavsnovsky (a professor in my master's degree. Awesome)
Pearl and Wagner by Kate McMullin
Commander Toad by Jane Yolen
I am too lazy to post the pictures today, but get these books from the library if you have an emerging ready or a just getting going reader. They are awesome. Don't just read Frog and Toad!

Lindsay, my mom directed me toward your blog - you have some great recommendations, I will have to check them out!
ReplyDeleteHave you ever read any Sharon Creech books? I am guessing you probably have, but if not I think you would love them... one of my FAVORITE JF authors.
