This Step 2 Step into Reading leveled reader features The Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About That!
It’s Halloween, and the Cat in the Hat is taking Sally and Nick on a trip to find costumes. But when they encounter a colony of tiny cave bats, they are in for a fright—until they learn that most bats are harmless and nothing to be afraid of! Based on the PBS Kids Cat in the Hat Knows a Lot About Halloween! TV special, coming in 2016, this early reader is the perfect way for kids to celebrate the holiday—and learn a bit about an iconic Halloween animal!
Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories. For children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.
