About the book
Too Many Chickens (Step into Reading, Step 1)
How many chickens can fit in a fort? One? Two? A dozen? Surely, no more than that? Not to mention the chicks, a rooster, and maybe even a duck! This delightfully wacky Step 1 leveled reader is a perfect fun read for readers just learning to read on their own! With rhyming text and engaging art, this reader is filled to the brim with reading fun (and chickens!).
Step 1 Readers feature big type and easy words for children who know the alphabet and are eager to begin decoding letter sounds.
