Customer Reviews

good book
It's a fun book and I've tried one play with my students. Many of them don't speak English so it's good for them to practice their fluency by practicing their lines. Some of the plays seemed very advanced for an emergent reader level, but they might just work out. Really a fun book!

Good for struggling early reader
My sons are twins and one is a strong reader. The other twin feels that he is not a strong reader but this book has helped to increase his confidence. It helps that there is a variety of difficulty levels in the short plays and also that we can each take different roles. Also the reading is only a few sentences at a time so it's a good way for an early reader to get started.

Great Book for Emergent Readers
This book is great for beginning readers! I will be using it in my first grade classroom at the beginning of the year.
