> Tell me more about the Pioneer Valley books...:-)
>
Jennifer, We have used a lot of the books published by Pioneer Valley. I am a
Reading Recovery teacher during part of my day, so I look especially closely at
the spacing between words, the form of the 'a' and 'g', and the match between
the words and the pictures. Pioneer Valley books have been great in all those
areas.
There are several different 'series' containing the same characters, and the
books with these characters come in many levels. For instance, Rosie and Bella
are two little poodle-type white dogs. The books containing these characters
range from very low all the way up to easy level chapter books. In addition,
the illustrations are real photographs! That is just one example of the
'series'.
Within the last year or two, Pioneer Valley introduced an extensive set of
nonfiction titles. Once again, they range from very easy to more difficult and
the illustrations are wonderful photographs.
I hope that information may help answer your request for more information.
Phyllis
