Whistling Whales: Beyond the Sounds of ABC
Rhyme and rhythm, combined with Ingrid Hess' whimsical art, engage children in discovering and learning all the sounds of twenty-one multi-letter phonograms.
When children learn all the sounds made by each phonogram, they take a giant leap toward becoming strong readers and spellers. This playful introduction to the sounds of Englishopens the door to reading and is certain to be a read-aloud favorite.
Read aloud with your child and learn the sounds made by each letter or phonogram! Emphasize the sounds, not the letter names as you read. For example, did you know an A makes three sounds and a Y makes four? This is introduced in Doodling Dragons. Colorful pages have the letter/phonogram on the left side and several words that include the sound on the right. Point to the phonogram as you say the sound, asking the child to repeat after you. The phonograms are identified with a symbol above the letter. You can ask the child to match the phonograms and even think of other words with those sounds in them. Doodling Dragons covers all sounds made by letters A-Z and correlates with Level A of the Logic of English Foundations program. Whistling Whales introduces 21 phonograms covered in Level B of the program and Knitting Knights covers 27 more phonograms studied in Level C.Build an awareness of sounds as you enjoy the often silly illustrations: emus emailing, hugging hedgehogs, jittery jellyfish, puppy's paws and wishful wolves wearing wigs! Hardcover, 46-60 pgs each. ~ Sara

Liked to open the earlier book to a random page, and then listen to the accompanying songs on album available on streaming service.
Recommended to teach a 3 yr old phonics.
This looks like a fun and visual book! I plan to read this many time with my girls and hoping it will make learning phonics fun!
