A collection of five Step into Reading leveled readers—all featuring the brave and adventurous Disney Princess Moana!

This Disney Moana Step into Reading collection features five Step 2 and Step 3 leveled reader stories in one book: Moana’s New Friend, Moana and Pua, Moana Finds the Way, Pua and Heihei, and Quest for the Heart. This is a perfect gift for Disney Princess fans and children ages 4 to 6 who can’t get enough of Disney’s Moana.
 
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.
 

PreS-Gr 1-A single volume containing five easy-to-read stories based on Disney's Moana. The collection begins with an introduction to the characters, including Gramma Tala and Moana's mother, Sina, and then moves on to the stories, such as how Moana rescued Pua and how silly HeiHei the rooster almost lost the gift Moana made for her dad. The last entry, "Quest for the Heart," is the longest of the five-about 30 pages, where the others are about 20-and is an overview of the whole Moana mythos. The graphics are the film quality that readers expect from Disney and the franchise. Moana fans will enjoy interacting with the storybook version of the beloved film. VERDICT Readers who are on the verge of reading by themselves will benefit from the confidence boost that comes from familiarity.-Jennifer Miskecα(c) Copyright 2011.
