Pages 1 and 3 are little books laid flat: read each one together, then point out its cover, contents, headings, page numbers and glossary. Pages 2 and 4 ask questions about the book before them. Page 5 has children tell what they learned from the words and what from the picture, and page 6 is a plan for a little book of their own.
Show a real nonfiction book from your library next to the little book: find the contents, a heading and the glossary in both. On page 6, children can fold a sheet of paper into a book and copy their plan into it.
Read the little book together and play "find it": ask your child to find the page about swimming or what a tadpole is, using the contents and the glossary.
Little books about frogs and bees, written with words a 1st grader can read, with a cover, contents, headings, page numbers and a glossary. Children find their way around each book, tell what the words say and what the picture shows, and plan a little book of their own.
