More about How Rocket Learned to Read Book:


An endearing white dog with black spots loves chasing leaves and chewing sticks. He also loves napping under his favorite tree. One day his sleep is interrupted by a tiny yellow bird that designates him her first student. Rocket wants no part of her lessons, but the bird is determined to teach him to read. She returns each day, hangs an alphabet banner from the trees, and gushes, Ah, the wondrous, mighty, gorgeous alphabet. Then she begins to read a story, stopping at an enticing part. Overcome by curiosity to hear more, Rocket eventually enters into the bird’s lessons, and the two have a grand time using the mighty, gorgeous alphabet to spell out all the things in Rocket’s world.

The bird leaves as winter approaches, but Rocket continues practicing, spelling everything in sight. And when Bird returns the following spring, a tail-wagging, eager-to-read student greets her with joy. The illustrations, rendered in oil and colored pencil, offer full pages, spreads, and oval vignettes. They depict Rocket in all his various moods, from diagonal brows raised in displeasure to delight at his teacher’s return. Adults will love the bird’s enthusiasm, her use of stories, and her ability to associate lessons with Rocket’s everyday life to win over her reluctant pupil. Hardcover.

Ideal for preschool to Grade 2 students.
