Scholastic's award-winning reading program is now available to pre-readers with the creation of two pre-Set 1 boxes! Expanding upon the BOB Books step-by-step philosophy, these sets offer children and their parents a simple and satisfying structure for getting ready to read. The Alphabet set introduces uppercase and lowercase letters and initial letter sounds, helping children match sounds to letters, letters to words, and words to a story. The Pre-Reading Skills set uses humorous read-aloud stories to introduce spatial, relational, and sequencing concepts that kids need to start reading on their own. Includes: 1. Circle and Square 2. Circle and Triangle 3. The Opposites Game 4. Up, Down, and All Around 5. Make a Match! 6. What's Different? 7. Big and Tall 8. Short and Small 9. Let's Get Together 10. Odd One Out 11. First, Second, Third 12. What Comes Next? Author - Lynn Maslen Kertell Illustrator - John R. Maslen Number of Pages - 144 Format - Mixed media product Publisher - Scholastic Inc.
