I Am Reading: Just Mabel - Tapa blanda

Mabel hates her name - it's so boring. Then she sees a glamorous singer on television called Mabel . . . and realizes that her own name is just fine after all. The I Am Reading series provides just the right balance of challenge and support for newly independent readers. Large, easy-to-read type, satisfying stories by top writers and cheerful full-colour pictures help children make the transition from picture books to chapter books. Each book includes a bookmark flap, tips for beginner readers and either short, numbered chapters or two short stories.
