Red Rover, Red Rover, Send a Vowel Over cover

The newest addition to the Language is Fun series, this colorful picture book from award-winning author Kimberlee Gard and illustrator Sandie Sonke teaches children all about vowel sounds

The vowels, little a, e, i, o, and u, know they are different from the other letters, so they hesitate to join in the playground games, but when the consonants try to form words, they realize just how impossible that is without the vowels. With some encouragement from little y, a letter who belongs to both groups, the vowels join the fun and use their sounds to make words we all love. With anthropomorphized letters as the characters and fun visualizations of words with and without their vowels, Red Rover, Red Rover, Send a Vowel Over is the perfect gift for teachers or parents of new readers!

"Readers just learning to read will enjoy the book, probably read to them, and will get to know the letters better; but also, older readers will enjoy the story because it teaches about friendship, getting along, and feeling good about yourself. The illustrations are bright and colorful and draw the reader in. I have read The Little I Who Lost His Dot (one of the previous books in the series about letters), and this story fits right along with the same letters but with new adventures." -- Lydia, age 10 * Kids' BookBuzz *
