Unlock Reading! The words in this book have offered many children the opportunity to read their first book on their own for the first time, independently and out loud to their class during circle time. Now, your young one will have the opportunity to enjoy this magical experience with you. Allow this tool in your hands to make learning easy, fun, and funny! The contents of this book are the building blocks for successful reading and comprehension and lots of creative play in between. These words are the key to unlock a whole new world for children. Once your child learns how to recognize and pronounce these words, a new journey will begin to unfold. They will begin weaving toward reading. From classrooms to cozy homes, spreading awareness of our dire need for unconditional love for creatures both big and small allows My Pet Bug to be the bridge that makes reading as enchanting as exploring! During her Montessori teacher training, Abriella Milazzo, the author and illustrator, was given the assignment to write a story using only easy words. That was one very long, fun night because she couldn't resist bringing My Pet Bug to life!
