K-3I Can Read Book series.
Illustrated by
Barbara Bottner.
Although they have their differences, best friends Pish and Posh have one common dream: to get their fairy wings. According to The Fairy Handbook, they must first learn to wish wisely. Young readers need to pay attention to punctuation and context cues to make meaning; the expressive illustrations provide extra help for readers who are better at identifying words than comprehending them.
