In this first book of the Word by Word series of graded readers, we meet Lee, Pat and their VERY clever dog Kim. The content of all Word by Word readers is based on extensive, diligent research into the most frequently used English words and structures. The key sight words and structures are presented gradually and systematically throughout the series. For example, all new words and structures are repeated at least 15 times subsequent to their first appearance in the series. This ensures effective and rapid learning as well as maximum retention and comprehension. It is this very systematic control of vocabulary and structure that makes Word by Word graded readers unique. All the books in the series have been extensively trialed and repeatedly improved over a period of many years and are now proven to be extremely effective in building functional literacy in children of many ages and nationalities, including the author's own children.
