<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"Gran is making jam but rats want the jam and attack in this easy-to-read book featuring the short 'a' sound"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Discover Bright Owl Books! This super simple beginning readers series, created by best-selling Step into Reading author and illustrator Molly Coxe, features vowel sounds - basic building blocks of reading - and only around 100 words in each book. With a note to parents and teachers at the beginning and story starters at the end, these books give kids the perfect start on educational success.<br></b><br>Gram is making jam. Can she keep it safe from all the rat attacks? This fun photographic easy-to-read story features the short "a" vowel sound.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Nat the rat, Pat the rat, and Matt the rat try to steal the jam that Gram is making for Ann, Fran, and Stan. In a nutshell, that is the plot of this phonics book for emergent readers, one of a new series, Bright Owl Books. The short 'a' sound is the focus, but <strong>the appeal is in the original photo illustrations that will grab children's interest</strong> even if the words and bare story don't. Stuffed white mice and gray rats are dressed and posed in fascinating environments filled with old toys, baskets, textured fabrics, and painted antique containers. These photos look like stills from a stop-action animated film that should have been produced with a more exciting storyline. A skirt, apron, and shawl in three different vintage prints adorn Gram's small figure, tiny spectacles perched on her pink stitched nose, in just one of the lovingly made costumes for the toy creatures. While most of the dialogue-driven text supports the repetition of the short 'a' sound ('I am a bandit, ma'am. Hand over the jam'), some of the vocabulary is more advanced and occasionally inconsistent in its reinforcement of its chosen sound. Publishing simultaneously are <em>Cubs in a Tub</em>, <em>Hop, Frog!</em>, <em>Princess Pig</em>, and <em>Wet Hen</em>. With such creative illustrations beckoning to readers, children may muster up their decoding skills to get through the purposeful text, perhaps with a little help from an adult.--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em></p>-- "Journal" (7/15/2018 12:00:00 AM)<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Before writing and illustrating kid-favorite easy-to-reads like Hot Dog, multi-talented Molly Coxe taught preschool and high school English. Her books have sold over two million copies. She lives in San Francisco.
