"The Step into Reading books hold the interest of even our most primary students. The books are perfect for our second-language learners, who need high-interest books with controlled lower-level vocabulary that look like 'real books,' not 'baby books.' " -Susan Banning, Assistant Principal "The Step into Reading series makes integrating reading into the curriculum so much easier. The nonfiction titles are perfect for teaching reading and language arts skills, while covering science and social studies content simultaneously!" -Lisa Laake, second-grade language arts teacher
