Gran on a Fan teaches beginning readers the five short vowel sounds. Learners review those sounds at the end. Lazy Bear, Crazy Bear collects zany "bearable" (Sorry… I couldn't resist) cartoons to teach five long vowel sounds. Readers learn 3 phonics rules with practice. Also available, Fun with Ed and Fred is a cleverly written story that covers over 50 sight words that beginning readers must learn for reading success. Silliness abounds to engage young readers as they master vital skills. Hardcover. ~ Ruth/Deanne
