The Kindergarten Trade Book Pack includes three age-appropriate trade books that are used in the units to model effective writing techniques, encourage students to read as writers, and provide background knowledge.

Children especially need opportunities to read as writers.

Because some teachers may want to purchase class sets and others may already own these popular books, these are available as an optional, but recommended, purchase.
