Winter Ride

This time out, Chick and Duckling hop onto their little red sleigh and tour the farm and forest. The key words are "zip," "slip," "slide" and "glide," and the two avian friends do a lot of that. Gliding on level ground, zipping down hills, sliding on the frozen pond and, eventually slipping off the track and tipping over the sleigh. Oh well, they know where to
find the little red sleigh for next time. The Railfence Bunch books promote early literacy and agricultural language. A very young child is building language while a toddler is chiming in with the reader recalling the rhyme on each page. A child eager to read will find Winter Ride a confidence building resource with two lines of repetition included on each page (lots of prepositions too). Winter Ride has 25 pages and Richard McNaughton's sweet and simple yet exquisite watercolour illustrations will provide thought-provoking conversation starters for your children.
