Diamonds and Toads

FROM AMERICA’S MOST TRUSTED NAME IN EARLY CHILDHOOD EDUCATION

     Every book in the Bank Street Ready-to-Read series is targeted at the individual abilities of children ages four to eight. The three interconnecting levels of the series are structured to grow along with a child’s developing reading skills.

This book is just right for a child old enough to say, “I Can Read It Myself,” but it will also be enjoyed as a read-aloud by younger children.

Diamonds and Toads

    Claire and Malina are as different as diamonds and toads—especially in the way they treat others.  And when a fairy rewards the sisters for their manners, their gifts are quite different indeed!  This unusual fairy tale, vividly told and exquisitely illustrated, will be enjoyed time and again by early independent readers and read-aloud audiences alike.
