Space Cows by Eric Seltzer - ESSENTIAL

Space Cows (Ready to Read Pre-Level One) by Eric Seltzer, illustrated by Tom Disbury. EARLY READER. Simon Spotlight (Simon & Schuster), 2018. $18. 9781534428768

BUYING ADVISORY: Pre-K, EL (K-3) - ESSENTIAL

AUDIENCE APPEAL: HIGH

Each page of this book describes something about space cows. Some pages are about the activities these cows enjoy and some are about the way they look or the places they live. 

The thing I like best about this book is that it starts out with the easiest the read phrases and gets progressively more difficult. This gave my first grade emergent reader the confidence to keep reading and keep trying as it got harder. The illustrations are engaging yet quick to evaluate so that the reader can focus on the text.
