This is volume five, Reading Level 1, in a comprehensive program (Reading Levels 1 and 2) for beginning readers.Two nine-book sets teach reading to children from preschool to grades K and 1, emphasizing phonics while also presenting a lively and engaging collection of facts and stories to make kids’ reading experiences enjoyable. Each title emphasizes one phonics family, the first five books in each set focusing on one vowel sound, and the remaining four books combining some vowel sounds or reviewing them all. Short vowel families are covered in Level 1 readers and long vowel families in Level 2 books. Fiction titles feature attractive illustrations and have story themes ranging from funny to serious. Each fiction title also suggests a brief activity that allows kids to interact with the book’s subject matter. Nonfiction titles are photo illustrated, and include “Fun Facts” to enrich children’s reading experiences. The nonfiction books contain the basic elements of a nonfiction book, including glossary and index. They also suggest web sites appropriate to kids’ interests where more information about each book’s subject is offered. Both fiction and nonfiction titles contain word lists that group each book’s words into “decodable” words—those containing the book’s main vowel sound, which the book is either teaching or reviewing. Word lists also include high-frequency words and challenging words included in the main text. All books present a letter to parents and teachers explaining the fundamental concepts underlying both the series and the specific title. Level 1 readers are designed for classroom or home schooling use in preschool and kindergarten, and Level 2 readers for kindergarten and grade 1. “The Caterpillar” is a story that covers the “short u” sound.

The expression "Don't judge a book by its cover" applies to all creatures, especially caterpillars. Without taking the time to get to know her, Speckles the spider and Crumbs the cricket take an immediate dislike to Katy the caterpillar. In their eyes, Katy is just too ugly to befriend. Fortunately, Annie the ant looks beyond Katy's stubby legs and green skin. What she sees is a beautiful friend. A miraculous transformation puts Speckles and Crumbs in their place and confirms the significance of respect for others. This delightful tale teaches readers that the cover of the book is much less important than what is on the inside. A bonus to this inspiring book is an introduction to the stages of a caterpillar’s life.
