First Book In My New Childrens Series : Kurt, Gert, Jazmine, And Bagel

Synopsis: Brrr! Jazmine is feeling cold, hungry, and lonely-and when she passes a picture window and sees her two friends, Kurt and Gert, in the warm, cozy house, she also feels a bit jealous! But this little dog will soon meet a handsome black and brown beagle named Bagel, who knows what it's like to be alone. Join Jazmine and Bagel as they form new friendships and embark on new adventures together! It's a story that will delight children of all ages and remind us of the importance of friends and having fun.

As a substitute teacher I see students struggle to read and pronounce high frequency words and syllables of words in all the grade levels. I began to think of a way to help them and with the help of my four beagles and their antics to get into mischief and trouble I an idea came to me in how I could share some of their adventures and help kids learn to read. Write a series of children's book that would incorporate my beagles mischief and the phonics that children need to succeed. So I did.

 Kurt, Gert, Jazmine, And Bagel was written for children beginning the reading process or for struggling readers; consequently, it contains an introduction or review of high frequency words, phonograms, whole words, and pronunciation within a storyline.

I plan to make this into a series of books so look for more adventures with Kurt, Gert, Jazmine, And Bagel in the months to come. But until then you can see the book trailer below and pick up a copy of the book at:
