Review: GAME DAY by Cari Meister

GAME DAY by Cari Meister is a super short Rookie Reader book. There isn't any Accelerated Reading information for it, and the Lexile folks merely mention that it's BR, but this is a very easy, boy friendly book that shouldn't be overlooked.

One of things that's good about it is that the text isn't intimidating --at all. But let me give you some samples.

Two teams.
A ball.
A bat.

or

The throw.
The catch.

And altogether there are only 23 words.

a	hat	teams
ball	he's	the
bat	hit	throw
catch	miss	tied
day	run	two
game	safe	we
game's	shirt	won
glove	slide

So this is a book that the earliest beginning readers are going to do well reading.

The artwork is simple and shows girls and boys and not everyone is white.  Could be a useful practice reader.
