Welcome to the
I Can Read! Feast for Beginning Readers Round-Up for the month of February 2012. This monthly meme, created by Terry Doherty of
The Family Bookshelf, celebrates easy readers and illustrated chapter books to encourage kids working to become successful readers. It's not too late to join in! If you have a link to share related to beginning readers, please comment below, and I'll add it to the round-up. (I'll accept links through Friday evening - after that, hang onto your posts for next month!)
