Little e is sure he could be a hero-he even has the cape to prove it! But at school, he is so quiet, he just doesn't stand out. That is, until one day when Little e doesn't show up to class. The other letters don't even notice he's gone at first, but when c, a, and k try to form a word for dessert, they realize that no matter what they do, they can't make it work. The whole class is in an uproar! Without their silent friend, what are they going to do? Will Little e finally get his chance to come to the rescue?

With adorable illustrations, helpful examples, and a cute classroom setting, The Mighty Silent e teaches spelling and vowel sounds in a new, exciting way that is sure to engage and successfully teach even the most stubborn reader.

ISBN 157690010x - Age range not stated; marked for beginning readers. Printed in U.S.A. Paperback, 16 pages. An Easy Phonics Readers book. Published by Teacher Created Materials Inc., in 1996. By Patty Carratello, illustration concept by Linda Smythe, art director Elayne Roberts, illustration and imaging by Larry Bauer, editor Darlene Spivak.

Kate loves to skate and she skates, chases and races all over. When she sees Jake with the cake she made, she chases him until they reach the lake - where they eat!

Ok, there isn't exactly a great storyline here. Phonics books tend not to be very good stories, if only because it's hard to tell a great tale while working so hard to create short sentences with a particular sound, in this case the long A sound, repeated as often as possible. But from the phonics perspective, this is a good book. It stresses the long A sound without reaching ridiculously to do it and the author manages to tell something of a coherent story. The illustrations are very bright and colorful, without a lot of distracting detail.

Patrick McDonnell's beloved comic strip, MUTTS, has appeared in over 700 newspapers across 20 countries for nearly 30 years. Charles Schulz called it "One of the best comics strips of all time." MUTTS has received numerous awards both for its artistic excellence and for its animal and environmental protection themes.

McDonnell is the author of New York Times bestselling picture books, including The Gift of Nothing and the Caldecott Honor winning Me...Jane (a childhood biography of Jane Goodall). Both have been adapted as musicals for the Kennedy Center stage.

His latest book, which will be released late September, is The Super Hero's Journey in which Marvel super heroes go on the ultimate journey: to find the love within. McDonnell has collaborated with spiritual teacher Eckhart Tolle on Guardians of Being and with Rumi translator-poet Daniel Ladinsky on Darling I Love You. Heart To Heart, a collaboration with His Holiness the Dalia Lama having an environmental theme, was released in early 2023.

McDonnell was a member of the Board of Directors of The Humane Society of the United States for 18 years and currently serves on the boards of The Fund for Animals, The Charles M. Schulz Museum and D&R Greenway Land Trust.

They say goodbye to long walks, butterflies, and the sun...and hello to long evening talks, fireflies, and the stars. But the hardest goodbye of all comes when one of the friends has to move away. Feeling alone isn't easy, and sometimes new beginnings take time. But even the hardest days come to an end, and you never know what tomorrow will bring.
