Decodable Book Must Reads for Children: Show Some Love

Show Some Love

If you have never heard of a Decodable Text before, do not be afraid! They are a good way for children to learn how to read books by themselves. I chose this book, Show Some Love, because it helps children read books by association. This book does not have a story line, but it does help children associate pictures with words. This book shows a child how to say words like "hug" or "smile". It is a great book to use during Valentine's Day.  The pictures are nice in the book. They are all photographs of children and parents,  but they are not very colorful. I would give this book a four  out of ten because there is not much appeal for a child. The colors do not pop off the page like some that are my reading list. Some of the words are hard for a child to say at their age so it might be a book you would have to be used later. This book is a really great way to use the PEER method to help your child understand more about reading. 

On a positive note, my choices this week are are online! Go to this website for more details on Show Some Love:
