Ready, Freddy!

Freddy's always ready for new adventures-and kids love reading about them! Whether he's doing anything to lose his first tooth (even if it means getting punched in the mouth) or bragging to another kid that he can beat him in the snowshoe race (before he's ever walked in snowshoes), Freddy creates the kind of problems that young readers can recognize and understand. Author Abby Klein, a first-grade teacher herself, models Freddy's adventures on those of real children. Perhaps that's why Freddy's concerns seem so realistic-and why young readers like his books so much. Like many first graders, Freddy loves sharks-and kids can look for the word fin hidden in the illustrations of each book. With simple sentences and color illustrations, this beginning reader series is a perfect choice to keep grade-school kids engaged and reading.
