Dandelion World Extras Stages 8-15 are first reader books by Phonic Books that introduce children to a few letters and sounds at a time. This pack of 16 books is perfect for children in Pre-K and Kindergarten who are learning to read, teaching different letter patterns through a series of stories.

Stage 8: CVCC
Stage 9: CCVC
Stage 10: CCVCC
Stage 11: ch
Stage 12: sh
Stage 13: th
Stage 14: ck, wh
Stage 15: ng, qu

Phonics is a way of teaching children to read by understanding the sounds that individual letters make and blending them to make a word. Children can learn to read using this skill to decode new words. Phonic Books specializes in decodable, systematic books supporting this structured literacy instruction.
