Joy Cowley Author Study Text Set 2 (6-Packs)
What happens when Mrs. Wishy-Washy goes on TV? Why is Greedy Cat at the market? What is Smarty Pants up to at the circus? This set of 25 stories, 6 copies of each, gives every small group in your class a Joy Cowley book they can read together — so the whole class can compare characters, language, and humor across many books by one author.
By now kids know Mrs. Wishy-Washy and Greedy Cat like old friends. This text set turns that friendship into an author study of character, humor, and language.
Twenty-five stories by Joy Cowley, including Mrs. Wishy-Washy on TV, Greedy Cat at the Market, Barbie the Wild Lamb, Dan and the Parrot, and Smarty Pants at the Circus. Because the books range from simple to more challenging, every student — beginning readers and strong readers alike — can read Joy Cowley and add to the conversation. Reading story after story by one author builds vocabulary and a sense of how stories work.
