(4) K-3 Illustrated by Ben Hodson. In this useful and lively primer, riotous, colorful cartoons bounce somewhat chaotically across pages devoted to helping readers recognize and practice pronunciation of short vowel sounds. Each of the five short vowels is arranged in a brief story. "Gran on a Fan" encourages recognizing and reading words with short a's; "Pets in Jets" provides practice for the short e. A review is appended.
