Meg and Greg: A Duck in a Sock

By: Elspeth Rae,Rowena Rae

A decodable book featuring four phonics stories specially designed to help children of all abilities overcome language-based learning difficulties. Meg and Greg are hanging out for the summer doing what ten-year-olds do—helping an injured duckling, finding a lost pet fish, saving ranch animals from a wildfire and catching a wandering sloth! A Duck in a Sock is the first book in the Meg and Greg series designed for shared reading between a child learning to read and an experienced reader. Inside you'll find four stories that introduce one new phonogram (a letter or combination of letters that represent a sound) in each story: the ck, sh, ch and th phonograms. Each story builds on the previous ones by including words with the phonograms already introduced. In addition, the series has special features to help a child with dyslexia or another language-based learning difficulty achieve reading success.

Meg and Greg: The Bake Sale

By: Elspeth Rae,Rowena Rae

Key Selling Points This decodable book includes features to accommodate struggling or dyslexic readers, such as comic-book-style illustrations, a dyslexia-friendly typeface with ample spacing, and shaded paper to reduce contrast between text and paper—all of which make this series more accessible. Targeted at struggling readers ages six to nine, The Bake Sale has a wide appeal to ELL readers, reluctant readers and at-level readers alike with its engaging and age-appropriate plots and low reading level that doesn’t demoralize or stigmatize struggling readers. Co-author Elspeth Rae is a teacher certified in using the Orton-Gillingham approach to teach children with dyslexia and other language-based learning difficulties. She is currently a literacy specialist teaching reading, spelling and writing to children ages five to thirteen. Co-author Elspeth Rae was diagnosed with dyslexia when she was eight years old. This is the third book in a series. The first two introduced the phonograms (a letter or combination of letters that represent a sound) ck, sh, ch, th and nk, ng, tch, dge. This book introduces the silent “magic” e: a-e, e-e, i-e, o-e and u-e.
