Sight word practice for beginning readers is important so that students will perform well on periodic evaluations done by classroom teachers. Puppy Dog Tales is a companion series to Kiddy Tales First Sight Words. Our goal is to make learning to read fun and easy.
The stories of Tom and Tess continue in my other series: Dog and Cat Tales ~~ Sight Word Stories, Books One, Two, and Three. These three books are chapter books written at approximately the same level as this book, and each book leads to the next one as we follow the adventures of Tom and Tess.
