Monkey Trouble: Brand New Readers
Kindergarten-Grade 1-In Business, a little monkey makes birthday presents for his mother, hides in a trash can, gets so many bandages that he pretends to be a mummy, and loses a tooth. In Trouble, the same character pops some balloons, gets carried away by a kite, pretends to eat worms, and has a series of close calls that culminate in a big "SPLASH!" The chapters have one sentence per page, and feature plenty of repetition and controlled vocabularies. The colorful cartoons help new readers decipher unfamiliar words. The stories have a touch of humor, which adds to their appeal. Early readers will find success in reading these independently.Sharon R.
