Dad tells Bess to pick a duck to sell. But is that a duck, Bess? Reading Corner Phonics offers a range of fun phonics books. Controlled vocabulary, which is expanded through each level as the texts get longer, from simple CVC words with short vowel sounds to trisyllabic and tricky words, supports the teaching of synthetic phonics, allowing children to read words in context. Compiled in consultation with literacy experts Dr. Barrie Wade and Dr. Hilary Minns, this book includes a simple puzzle which encourages children to spot the rhyming words.
