Silly Sadie, Silly Samuel

Ann Whitford Paul

Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, 2000 - Juvenile Fiction - 40 pages

From the earliest stages of sounding out words to the excitement of reading a whole book without help, Ready-to-Read books open up a world of possibilities to children at three different levels:
-- LEVEL 1: STARTING TO READ
-- LEVEL 2: READING TOGETHER
-- LEVEL 3: READING ALONE

Samuel and Sadie are pretty silly. Sometimes they argue over where to hang a picture -- when they both want it in the same spot. And sometimes they wash their clothes while they are still wearing them! But even though Samuel and Sadie never get things quite right, they know what's really important.
