Rocket's 100th Day of School by Tad Hills*

Step into Reading Step 1 "Ready to Read"

Rocket stories are so sweet!  This one is perfect for Kindergarten and First grade students to read on the 100th day of school.
Rocket diligently collects items for his 100th day of school.  His new friend squirrel permits him to store the items in his home.  When the 100th day of school arrives and Rocket collects his items, the five acorns are missing.  Hmm.  I wonder what happened to them?  How will Rocket find five more items quickly?
**Highly recommend!

The more difficult words are supported with pictures.  Perfect book for beginning readers.
Strategies: cross checking, accuracy/word attack strategies, predicting/confirming predictions, story elements/retelling
