GRAPHIX Just a Little Blue: A Novel (Owly #2): Volume 2

Description

Owly and Wormy just want to help... Best friends Owly and Wormy have days filled with adventure and hearts filled with kindness. And when they discover a bluebird family living in a damaged tree, they want to help out the best way they can: by building the birds a new home! But when Owly and Wormy share their gift, the birds don't welcome the new birdhouse quite as Owly and Wormy had hoped. With a big storm moving in, can Owly and Wormy help get the birds (and their chicks!) to safety before it's too late?Through a unique blend of words and symbols, Owly can be read by the youngest readers, and is a great introduction to graphic novels! Review: Great book! - This book and the others in the series are light and fun, easy reads, with little words but still engaging. I've had kids from 6-13 love these and ask for more in the series. Review: These books are the reason my daughter can read - No exaggeration in the title, these books have been amazing. It was a struggle getting my 5y/o to want to read and I kept trying to find exciting books with fun pictures and simple words that she could be interested in. She gets discouraged easily with hard vocabulary and will just resort to looking at pictures. A local bookshop recommended Owly to me and it has been amazing. I only had to read a handful of pages to her so that she could learn how to read a graphic novel, what order to look at the panels, etc. The stories are engaging, she loves the characters, the panels are linked intuitively, and she has devoured the entire series over a course of weeks. The vocabulary is perfect for the age group without taking away from the story. There are occasional large words that she would need help with, but probably only 5-6 per book. Her reading has changed from a point of concern to one of her strong suits, solely because of her interest in these books. I can't recommend them highly enough. She recommends this book as the best in the series.
