Synopses & Reviews
It's school-vacation time, but Joseph, a little monkey, wants to learn to read. His teacher comes up with a way for him to practice during the break. Each of his animal friends-Antelope, Badger, Crocodile, etc.-wears his or her initial and says it whenever Joseph shows up to play. By the time school begins again, Joseph can recite his alphabet and even spell a word or two.
Children who are just beginning to decode words will love learning along with Joseph. The charming animal characters, enjoying the pleasures of school vacation, make it easy and fun.
