RUMBLE!

I’ve written emergent readers during all of my career and I hope to continue to do so in the future. Why? Because it’s exciting to see a young child master the art of reading. These Ready-to-Read books by Simon Spotlight (Simon & Schuster) are leveled so any reader can find engaging text right at their success threshold. RUMBLE! debuts in spring, 2026. Rocket is getting ready for her first flight in space. Will she make it? Every new reader will root for Rocket during the challenges, then applaud her launch into space.
