Book Description
Jen Lancaster hates to burst your happy little bubble, but life in the big city isn't all it's cracked up to be. Contrary to what you see on TV and in the movies, most urbanites aren't party-hopping in slinky dresses and strappy stilettos. But lucky for us, Lancaster knows how to make the life of the lower crust mercilessly funny and infinitely entertaining. Whether she's reporting rude neighbors to Homeland Security, harboring a crush on her grocery store clerk, or fighting-and losing-the Battle of the Stairmaster- Lancaster explores how silly, strange, and not-so-fabulous real city living can be. And if anyone doesn't like it, they can kiss her big, fat, pink, puffy down parka.

Reading Fun with Word Families
Author: Bobbie Lavender
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1503540588
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
This is a mini reading program with 100 progressive reading stories to promote coding and decoding of words. This reading program is designed to introduce 4 and 5 year olds to the wonderful world of reading. It can also aid a child who is experiencing reading difficulties. It may be used as a good source of supplemental reading materials. Along with teaching a child to read, the program can also promote success in reading and enhance a childs confidence and desire to read. A list of introduction and review words are presented at the beginning of each story. These introduction words may be used as a spelling lesson which would combine reading and spelling. This reinforces reading words in content and helps to make spelling grades obtainable at a 100% level. It is advisable that a strong phonics program which emphasizes consonant sounds, vowel sounds and consonant blend sounds accompany this reading program. I endeavored to make these stories short, informative and entertaining for the child. Having taught for 30 years and having used this method to help children read, I KNOW IT WORKS!
