The Poky Little Puppy Step into Reading (Step Into Reading)

by Kristen L. Depken

The Poky Little Puppy stars in his first Step into Reading book!
 
This Step 1 Step into Reading title has been adapted from the original Little Golden Book story The Poky Little Puppy for children just learning to read. Freshly illustrated in the style of the original book, this simple, sweet story about a familiar puppy and his roly-poly, tumble-bumble adventures will inspire confidence in the  newest readers.
 
Step 1 Readers feature big type and easy words for children who know the alphabet and are eager to begin reading. Rhyme and rhythmic text paired with picture clues help children decode the story.

I enjoy Little Golden Books, and I enjoy the antics of the Poky Little Puppy, but it is a verbose little story and while my daughters love it, they're not ready to fully read it alone. This little reader changes all that! In a Level 1 reader Random House Step into Reading has made it entirely possible for my budding reader to read this book all by herself (it was very exciting!)! This is the perfect level for a reader who has a grasp on the basic phonograms and is learning more daily. I'm very pleased with the repetition and quality of the words chosen. I'd love to have a copy of this for our shelves.

I read a digital arc.
