I Had Ten Hats

Description

Have fun finding silly hats--a flat hat, a bat hat, and even a cat hat. This Level C book is perfect for new readers. I had a red hat. I had a bed hat. 10 hats in all. But a strong wind comes by and scatters them everywhere. He invites readers to help find them. Artwork by lauded author-illustrator David McPhail will delight and motivate your child as he or she reads the text. And a search-and-find game adds to the fun. This book has been officially leveled using the F & P Level Gradient(TM) Leveling System. For readers who've mastered basic sight words, Level C books feature slightly longer sentences and a wider range of high-frequency words than Level B books. Level C books are suitable for mid-to-late kindergarten readers. When Level C is mastered, follow up with Level D I Like to Read- The award-winning I Like to Read series features guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas & Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators--including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors--create original, high-quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read again and again with their parents, teachers or on their own!

"Gentle and whimsical, this is an easy reader that feels like a picture book, which makes it a valuable transition text for emerging readers."-School Library Journal "McPhail's signature line-and-color style makes this cozy concept book-turned-seek-and-find warm and inviting. So much more than just a hat rack-fun!" -Kirkus Reviews
