- Abstract
- en_US There are 18 fables in this pamphlet with the curious subtitle including "Decodable," as the T of C on ii-iii shows. The introduction on v helps the reader to understand that reference to decoding. The author has been tutor, has launched an online reading program, and now is turning to publishing in keeping with her approach to learning reading. That approach uses the Barton Reading and Spelling System and works further with Orton-Gillingham based methods. The last line of her introduction shows the problem of asking a word processing program to yield even margins: five words are socially distanced from each other across the line. OF makes for a good first story. One little frog is sat upon but not killed by the cow, and the mother blows herself up so much that she has to lie down. "We should remember there is a difference between the difficult and the impossible." There is an unfortunate reference to the mother frog "laying" on her lily pad. BC is well told by employing a "Boss Mouse" to call the meeting. At the book's end there are a page "About the Words," a page of "Additional Words" (apparently words that do not fit the mentioned systems) and a long list (46-56) of "Words Used with Frequency." Not illustrated. 6" x 9".
