Margaret Hillert and illustrator David Schimmell have teamed up to expand the popular Dear Dragons series. Find out what happens when a boy and his pet dragon learn about saving money, helping others, and what to do before going to bed. They also take an outing to see if the groundhog will see his shadow!
These Beginning-to-Read books capture the imaginations of beginning readers and help them on their way to independent reading. Each book in this series includes a miniature teaching guide in the back with a note to the caregiver in the front that helps the reader take as much away from the book as possible, including phonetic and vocabulary exercises. These books use text that is comprised of common, frequently used words to assist the reader with reinforcing illustrations to help he or she become an independent reader and develop comprehension. A word list and activities in the back of the book are also included.
Use Dear Dragon books to:
- Practice reading high frequency words
- Expand comprehension
- Improve oral language skills
Writing Builders - All New Series!

The Writing Builders series helps young students become better writers! Like its companion series Poetry Builders, readers will be able to join in on the fun as friends in the story learn the basics of the writing process. Concepts include brainstorming and outlines, first drafts, revising, and the finished piece. From book reports to blogs, each book in the Writing Builders series covers a different writing project, allowing students to easily follow the steps needed to finish their own writing. Activities in the back of the book provide additional information and writing practice.
