A Child’s
Copybook Reader
Volume 2 • by Sonya Shafer
Featuring
Mary's Lamb (poem)
The Farm (story) • Matthew 7:24–29 (ESV)
A reader and copybook in one!
Now you can use the same beautiful passages for both reading and printing practice! A
Child's Copybook Reader reinforces your child's beginning reading skills and instills
confidence through using the same words for copywork. All in one convenient book!
• Quality selections add interest to reading and copying sessions.—Both you and your
child will enjoy passages from classic children's poetry, Aesop's fables, the Bible, and The
Happy Reader, a reader used in Charlotte Mason's curriculum.
• A gentle approach encourages continued practice reading and printing.—Each
reading selection is broken into smaller segments, like stanzas or paragraphs, to help your
student focus on any new words in short lessons.
• Built-in review increases word retention and reading fluency.—All of the words are
reviewed as your student copies each reading segment in his best handwriting. Plus, the
entire reading selection is presented later in the book for your child to read all the way
through with confidence and expression.
• The clean, spacious design promotes good handwriting.—Each copywork page
provides lots of room for beginning writers and a beautiful model to copy, so your student
can see what is expected of him and put forth his best effort. And the book lies flat to
accommodate either left- or right-handed writers.
Available in Zaner Bloser or D'Nealian.

Its fleece was white as snow,
And everywhere that Mary went
The lamb was sure to go;
