Amy does not want a bath. Then Mrs. Smith tells her all about the old tin bath she had as a child. Maybe Amy's bath is not so bad after all! Controlled vocabulary is expanded through each level as the texts get longer, from simple CVC words with short vowel sounds to trisyllabic and tricky words. Compiled in consultation with literacy experts: Dr. Barrie Wade and Dr. Hilary Minns. A fun rhyming puzzle encourages children to spot patterns in words to help with encoding.
