A pop-up storybook with every reading and listening game inside. Catch rhyming flies at Rhyme Pond, clap with the caterpillar, feed Munch, crank the Vowel Machine, ride the Word Train, catch Firefly Words and read a book at Story Time.

Fireflies drift over a summer meadow, each glowing with a word. Find the one Patchy says, or read each word aloud. Fill the jar and the fireflies draw a picture in the stars.

A train pulls in with one letter on each car. Tap each car and say its sound, slide to blend, then pick the picture and send it off. The last train pulls into Word Town for a parade.
Decodable stories
