This book targets recognition of basic high frequency words that children need to recognize "on sight" at automatic levels. The multilevel text pages support phonics knowledge, sight word practice and reading fluency at the K and 1st grade levels.

The text moves gradually from single word phrases to phrases and sentences to increase children's ability to phrase or "chunk" text into meaningful units.

This book includes both one-window and two-window text frames in the shape of delightful animal characters, which are used to reinforce concepts about print and to stress left-to-right and top-to-bottom reading practice.

Each Reading Pal contains pop-out features, which form windows that allow children to confine their text view to one or two words or sentence chunks at a time. This Reading Pal approach is supported by research indicating that the human brain embraces knowledge presented in novel ways. The 12 clever Reading Pals included in this book will stimulate young readers' desire to practice their newly learned skills in a fun way!
