Summary

Meg and Greg: the Bake Sale


A decodable book featuring four phonics stories specially designed to help children of all abilities overcome language-based learning difficulties. Meg and Greg are off on a series of summer adventures around their neighborhood, along with some four-legged companions. The two friends pull off a bake sale despite back-to-back disasters in the preparations, save the day for Greg's mom when her ballet studio floods, rescue the neighbor's dog after he slips down a slope into a cove, and discover a lost cat with newborn kittens sheltering in a dangerous spot in the garden. Meg and Greg: The Bake Sale is the third book in the Meg and Greg series designed for shared reading between a child learning to read or struggling to read and an experienced reader, following Frank and the Skunkand A Duck in a Sock. Inside you'll find four stories that introduce one new phonogram (a letter or combination of letters that represent a sound) in each story. This book focuses on the "magic e": a-e, e-e, i-e, o-e, and u-e phonograms. The stories have special features to help a child with dyslexia or another language-based learning difficulty find reading success. Praise for the Meg and Greg series: "A thoughtfully designed storybook adds another helpful tool to the box for readers who need support." - Kirkusfor Frank and the Skunk "A unique approach to high-interest texts for reluctant burgeoning readers, this book offers phonics fun wrapped in serious research-based success." - School Library Journal for A Duck in a Sock "The stories offer both flashes of humor and plenty of action to drive the instructional intent." - Booklist for A Duck in a Sock
