I Can Read Comics is a new early reader line that familiarizes children with the world of graphic novel storytelling and encourages visual literacy in emerging readers.
What's better than a snack with friends? A snack surprise for friends, of course! When Snail spots a shiny crab apple high up in a tree, she can't wait to share it with her pals . . . she just has to get it down first! This whimsically illustrated, uplifting story will not only make kids fall in love with comics but will also spark their curiosity about the natural world.
A Feast for Friends also has a "Cartooning Basics" page at the front of the book and a "Nature Guide" page at the back, making it the whole package for emerging readers--and a great example of what I Can Read Comics is all about!
Tiny Tales: A Feast for Friends is a Level Three I Can Read Comic, meaning it's a more complex story for independent readers.
Snail's big-hearted quest is just the beginning of the fun.
