Books for Emergent Readers in Grade 1

The following predictable books are wonderful for shared reading, because their design invites participation from children, even non-readers. Repeated readings are both fun and beneficial in establishing the necessary connection between story and print. A little advice: Have fun reading with your child, and don't take on the role of the teacher, making the child work at the reading! Your child will let you know when he is ready to take over the reading process.
