PRODUCT INFORMATION

Summary

R-controlled vowels for your emergent reader!

Description

A decodable book featuring four phonics stories specially designed to help children with dyslexia or other language-based learning difficulties find reading success.

While Meg and Greg are visiting Greg's family on Stardust Island they find themselves searching for one lost or missing item after another! Join Meg, Greg, cousin Martha and a puppy named Scarlet as they discover the thief who took off with a precious garnet ring at a farmers' market, find and catch a horse named Popcorn who got lost in a forest, save a surfer who fell from his board and got badly hurt and chase an escaped teddy bear dangling from a helium balloon at a fun fair.

Meg and Greg: Scarlet and the Ring is the fourth book in the Meg and Greg series designed for shared reading between a child learning to read and an experienced reader. Inside you'll find four stories that focus on words with r-controlled vowels. For the first time in the series, readers will also be introduced to multiple spellings for a single sound.

Praise for the Meg and Greg series:

"A thoughtfully designed storybook adds another helpful tool to the box for readers who need support." --Kirkus for Frank and the Skunk

"A unique approach to high-interest texts for reluctant burgeoning readers, this book offers phonics fun wrapped in serious research-based success." --School Library Journal for A Duck in a Sock

"The stories offer both flashes of humor and plenty of action to drive the instructional intent." --Booklist for A Duck in a Sock

Critic Reviews

"Contains four entertaining short stories, all linked by the theme of mystery. Each story introduces new characters and complex adventures, providing readers with opportunities for further literacy development through discussions of both literal and inferential story events."

-- "BC Books for Schools"
