Nature Books for 1st Graders

When Ladybug plants one teeny, tiny vine, she’s sure she’ll grow the most magnificent garden ever - but what happens when a little vine refuses to stop growing? Can Ladybug and her friends rein in the twisting tendrils before the whole world turns into one big green, flowery mess? With swallowed sheds, splitting stems, and watermelons the size of boulders, this wild garden tale is bursting with giggles. This decodable reader practises the ’nk’ sound in words like ‘pink,’ ’think,’ ’trunk,’ ‘junk,’ and ‘shrink.’
