A chapter book for the learning reader. TREE CHILD Eva was written by author SUSAN ANITA JONES, an educator, counsellor, artist, and writer with over thirty years' experience working with children. It was especially written to encourage an early reader in the English language. Written with repetitive phrasing and selective vocabulary, this chapter book is the hook! Eva and Penny are approachable and easy characters who live on an island. Real situations and real solutions for the reader. Eva discovers how to be true to herself as she experiences difficulties and problems. A captivating and skill-teaching read. The chapter book uses simple sentence structure, distraction free pages with Sans Serif font, and readable font size. It is a fluid read.There is a definite gap for readers who have difficulty with traditional chapter books. Graphic novels are full of distractions, and picture books are full of silly bears with no interesting story lines. These readers feel they are mature, yet there is nothing for them to read! Hence, they become discouraged. They don't want to be in picture books when their classmates are in chapter books. They can't read graphic novels; the format is horrendously confusing.Here is a great alternative!Reading is a wonderful experience. Reading is a precious gift which you can give.
