Description Jolly Phonics Folktales Readers are retellings of traditional folktales from around the world. Green Level Books (third level) uses decodable regular words and the alternative letter-sound spellings y as in happy and the hop-over e spellings of the long vowel sounds as in take, these, bike, code, and mule, and a small number of tricky words (frequently used words that are not fully decodable at this stage). All new tricky words and alternative vowel spellings used are shown on the front inside cover. These can be used as a quick practice activity before starting the book. Comprehension questions and discussion topics are included at the end of the book. These ensure that students are not only able to read the text, but also get meaning from it.
