How to Teach a Troll to Read

Tom is struggling to learn how to read. At the peak of his frustration, he accidentally gets turned into a troll and goes to live under a bridge. By a stroke of fate, a girl (Meg) accidentally drops her phonics book under the bridge where Tom the troll lives. Will Tom be able to use this luck to overcome his frustration? Will he ever be a regular boy again?

How to Teach a Troll to Read beautifully describes how the struggles, frustration, and embarrassment that some kids experience as they learn to read can make them feel like a troll! By working hard, pushing through the challenge, and sometimes with a bit of extra help, they can learn to read and feel like regular kids again.

Thoughtfully, the book is printed in Open Dyslexic font, to help mitigate some common reading errors caused by dyslexia. It also comes with an illustration inside the cover, showing each letter of the alphabet, with the troll’s face making the mouth position for that letter. A great tool for parents, grandparents, and caregivers to help their emerging readers sound out letters.

Perfect for ages 3 – 8 (pre-readers, emerging readers, and new readers alike!)
