ReviewedWhat do all the animals in this book have in common? They fly! The expertly crafted text uses a repetitive sentence pattern along with strong visual cues to support early readers as they build their reading skills and confidence. This 16-page book features repetitive and predictable text and incorporates high-frequency and familiar sight words. Children just learning how to read will love these colorful and engaging nonfiction books.
The Animals on the Move! series (6 titles) is part of Bearcubs Books, a new imprint dedicated to supporting early literacy skills. This book uses a repetitive Q&A format to support new readers and show off some of the sky's frequent fliers. A large, vividly colored photo spans each doublepage spread, askingWhat can fly? on the left page. The response always appears on the bottom of the right:A [animal name] can fly. Even if kids can't yet read everything, the photo will give the context clues they need. A bee, duck, bat, dragonfly, eagle, and butterfly all wing across the book's pages, and appended teaching tips offer suggestions to instructors or caregivers for before, during, and after reading to help little ones better hone their literacy skills.
