Dory turns learning to read into a hilarious adventure through the power of imagination --perfect for fans of Junie B.

Jones and Ivy and Bean! Ever since Dory met Rosabelle, a real true friend whose imagination and high spirits match her own, school has been pretty good.

But now the class is learning to read, and its proving to be a challenge for Dory.

While Rosabelle can read chapter books in her head, Dory is stuck with baby books about a happy little farm.

Dory wishes for a potion to turn her into a reader but things dont go as planned.

Suddenly, a naughty little girl who looks an awful lot like Dorys imaginary nemesis, Mrs.

Gobble Gracker, shows up.

And a black sheep leaves the pages of the farm book to follow Dory to school.

It really needs her help--this seems like a job for a superhero! And it would help if she knew how to read.

In her third book, Dory takes reluctant reading to new heights with a story that is as one-of-a-kind and hilarious as she is.

An especially wonderful book to share with reluctant readers.

I cant imagine a book more calculated to reinforce the power of reading and becoming a reader than Dory Dory Black Sheep .

It is a true triumph.
