Zintle and the Greenish River UFLI Foundations Lesson 122

Zintle sits by the river every day, watching the water and wondering about the king who lives at the bottom. When she rescues a smallish terrapin, a snappish heron, and a big catfish, something in the deep takes notice. Soon the river rises fast, sweeping away her family’s food and seeds, and Zintle must decide what she truly needs, and what she is willing to give in return. Created to align with the UFLI Foundations scope and sequence (Lesson 122: -ish), this book practices words like ‘catfish’, ‘wish’, ‘foolish’, ‘unselfish’, ‘cherish’.
