In the book, Dog Can Look at a Book, Dog and his friends are unable to go out and play in the snow. Dog has an idea about what they can do while they are waiting for the snow to stop. This book continues to introduce pronouns and quotation marks to indicate speech. Dog Books Early Readers have been written by a teacher with 27 years experience helping children in elementary and middle school learn to read. Dog Books are grouped into sets based on selected words that are essential for young readers to gain the skills and confidence to read. Each book in Set 2 uses a core group of words that are repeated throughout the book using a combination of simple and compound sentences. Any new nouns that are used in each book are given icon picture clues below the word in the sentence. The words from each book are revisited in a new story concept in follow-up books so that children gradually gain the confidence in word recognition that is required for fluency and meaning. In this way, young readers will begin to discover phonic patterns between words, which will enhance their already growing sight word vocabulary. Each 30-page story is simple enough to encourage successful completion of the whole book either in one or several sittings, which will boost reading confidence and encourage the young reader to try the next story to show their newly gained reading skills. The illustrations are basic so as to provide visual clues for the text without being so busy as to distract the young reader from decoding the text. As they are reading, young readers may notice that more complex words could be used. For example, if there is a picture of a bird flying up to a tree, the text may say, 'The bird can go up to the tree' where 'fly' would be more accurate than 'go'. Acknowledge this discovery, but point out that the word in the text is 'go' and possibly encourage them to write their own version of the sentence with the more complex word. Once a book is completed, the young reader should be encouraged to share their success by reading it to friends and family. Each 10 book set covers a reading level: Pre-K, Kindergarden, Year 1, Year 2, Year 3. The core words are drawn from traditional, leveled sight word lists, with some notable noun and verb additions that are relevant for 21st-century early readers. Books in Set 2 feature- several simple sentences per page while introducing some compound sentences. basic sight words drawn from Kindergarten core words lists with some multi-syllable words. new words that are added gradually, book by book. words are repeated within each book and revisited in later books. new nouns that are supplemented with an icon picture clue below the word. non-distracting illustrations to aid with text meaning. new story characters that are gradually added throughout each story to maintain interest and widen the opportunity for exposing readers to new words in a narrative context. Available as a Kindle ebook or paperback.
