Meg and Greg: A Duck in a Sock - Paperback
by Elspeth Rae (Author), Rowena Rae (Author), Elisa Gutiérrez (Illustrator)
A decodable book featuring four phonics stories specially designed to help children of all abilities overcome language-based learning difficulties.
Meg and Greg are hanging out for the summer doing what ten-year-olds do--helping an injured duckling, finding a lost pet fish, saving ranch animals from a wildfire and catching a wandering sloth!
A Duck in a Sock is the first 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 introduce one new phonogram (a letter or combination of letters that represent a sound) in each story: the ck, sh, ch and th phonograms. Each story builds on the previous ones by including words with the phonograms already introduced. In addition, the series has special features to help a child with dyslexia or another language-based learning difficulty achieve reading success.
