Preface


Dear Adults and Mentors,

As a parent and educator, I am keenly aware of your range of influence in nurturing the self-empowerment of young readers in your charge. Your choice to encourage independent expansion through looking for, and expecting the best in young learners, ensures you find it!

This, and the four other books that form this series, contain syllabification features that divide complex vocabulary into manageable chunks to assist young readers in decoding and pronunciation of new words that expand their communicative range – thus, fostering learner autonomy. You will be pleasantly surprised by how children respond when they feel your sincere belief in their capacity to meet a challenge.

Where possible, read this story together with young learners outside, where natural characteristics appearing in the story are easily referenced, as this will water the magical seed of intrinsic desire and curiosity inherent within them.

Most of all, enjoy viewing the world through the lens of Marcus and his amazing friends.

With love,
L. Malungu
