Calves introduces emergent readers to the world of a newborn calf while providing them with a supportive first nonfiction reading experience. Carefully crafted text uses high-frequency words, repetitive sentence patterns, and strong visual references to support emergent readers, making sure they aren’t facing too many challenges at once. Calves includes tools for teachers as well as introductory nonfiction features such as labels, a table of contents, words to know, and an index. Calves is part of Jump!'s Farm Babies series.
