Practice cursive handwriting in a challenging new way! The Trace-A-Story series publishes classic stories in traceable cursive and manuscript handwriting. This gives children extra practice in a more challenging setting and gives them a reason to complete the practice book. Every story is broken up into sections so that it's not too intimidating. One section per day is ideal, but since every person learns at different speeds, more or less can be done per day. Story Summary: Have you ever heard the expression “You're such a goody two shoes.” or “Don't be such a goody two shoes.”? Well this is Goody Two-Shoes story...Margery Meanwell and her brother become orphans. A kind gentleman helps them by buying her new shoes and taking her brother to sea with him, but that leaves poor Margery alone. While she waits for her brother to return, she learns the alphabet and then teaches other children their ABCs. Every day, for years, she is good and kind to everyone including animals. Then, one day she meets a rich man who wants to make her his wife. But is this man good and kind like herself or mean and rotten? Will her brother ever return to her? And most important, how did she get the nickname Goody Two-Shoes? Includes pictures that can be colored.
