Five Chapter Books 1: Systematic Decodable Books Help Developing Readers, including Those with Dyslexia, Learn to Read with Phonics

eBook (DOG ON A LOG Books Oct. 9, 2017)

DOG ON A LOG Books help kids, including kids with dyslexia, learn to read by adding a few more phonics rules and sight words at each step of books. The word list below will help you decide where in the series your child should start. For added practice, free printable game boards, flashcards, handwriting sheets, and more can be downloaded from dogonalogbooks.com.

The (purple) Let's GO! books have less text for less confident readers. The (red) chapter books are longer for more reading practice. Kids enjoy these stories that get more complex and longer as more phonics are added throughout the series.

Books can be purchased individually or as collection volumes. This is a collection volume of five Step 1 Chapter Books.

The “Look Inside” feature will help you see if this book is right for your child.

Additional information on using this series is available in the kindle book HOW TO USE DECODABLE BOOKS TO TEACH READING.

DOG ON A LOG Books follow a structured literacy/Orton Gillingham phonics progression.

Many early reader books or leveled books cannot be sounded out so kids often struggle and grow frustrated when they cannot sound out the words. However, kids who have been taught the phonics in DOG ON A LOG Books can be proud when they are able to sound out and read almost every word.


Kindle books have (primarily) color images when read on screens that display color. The letters can be adjusted to different sizes and fonts depending on the technology you are using.


Paper books have black and white images. The books are optimized for learners with dyslexia. They have cream colored paper and large Verdana font. Research has shown Verdana is one of the most dyslexia-friendly fonts.
