This sight words box of twelve books is perfect for young
fans of Eric Carle!
The World of Eric Carle meets sight words in this twelve-book boxed set just
right for young, emergent readers. Sight words, or "high-frequency
words," are words that appear often in written text. The more easily that
young children are able to recognize each word, the more fluently they are able
to read and comprehend. With the recognizable and timeless illustrations Eric
Carle is known for, this set is sure to appeal to families who are ready to
introduce sight words, or those looking for a collection of quick, simple
stories!
World of Eric Carle has partnered with educational consultant Wiley Blevins,
who brings his thirty-plus years of curriculum and educational expertise to
each book created for this boxed set.
