Corduroy was first introduced to readers in 1968 and soon became a classic character. Everybody's favorite department store bear is having further adventures in a story about using your voice. Now available in Step into Reading, the premier reader line!
When Lisa wants to contact a movie theater owner about a problem, she thinks he's too important and won't respond. Can Corduroy help his friend with her good deed? He shows her how powerful a letter can be, and that speaking up about a problem can make a change!
Step 2 Readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories, for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help. Rhyme and rhythmic text paired with picture clues help children decode the story.
