Nighttime Animals by DK Readers*

Pre-Level 1 (learning to read-simple sentences to introduce and reinforce vocabulary)
My five year old and I took turns reading this book aloud together.  More difficult words can be figured out by context clues (skip and read to the end of the sentence; then reread for the correct word) or by photograph clues.
Text features: table of contents, headings, labels, picture glossary, index
*Highly recommend.
Could teach a mini lesson on compound words while reading this book (nighttime, moonlight, underwing).
Other titles in this Pre-Level 1 series:
*Frogs and Toads
*Monkeys
*Colorful Days
*Meet the Dinosaurs
*Fishy Tales
