The "Sea Child" chapter book series is especially designed for beginning readers and readers with a dyslexic learning style. A decodable phonics reader. THE CAVE is BOOK ONE in the series of five books. However, the story lines in each chapter book are for maturing students and challenge the reader. Join the adventures of Tabby and Dee who live on a West Coast island in British Columbia, Canada. Readers are quickly hooked by the escapades of the two sisters. Fun stories are told with repetitive vocabulary for easy understanding and fluid reading. These chapter books use simple sentence structure, distraction free pages with Sans Serif font, and readable font size. Each adventure introduces one relevant issue. THE CAVE is the first book in the series. The issue is climate change. THE SPY TRAIL, the second book in the series, introduces the resettlement of refugees. The series was written by author SUSAN ANITA JONES, an educator, counsellor, artist, and writer with over thirty years' experience working with children. "There is a definite gap for readers who have difficulty with traditional chapter books. Graphic novels are full of distractions, and picture books are full of silly bears with no interesting story lines. These readers feel they are mature, yet there is nothing for them to read Hence, they become discouraged. They don't want to be in picture books when their classmates are in chapter books. They can't read graphic novels; the format is horrendously confusing. Reading is a wonderful experience. Helping your child love reading is a precious gift which you can give. Current and relevant issues are introduced in each book throughout the series -- for the thinking reader. Enjoy "
