"Relatively Difficult or 2-Dots-Leveled Readers (LRs) are books written for intermediate to advance beginning readers. They are used to help build vocabulary, develop decoding strategies and word recognition skills, learn the structure of narrative or expository texts, develop fluency, and foster love of reading. 2 Dots LRs have higher word count, more low frequency words, long and more complex sentence, and more sophisticated language (i.e. use of figures of speech). Below is the synopsis of texts/stories in this Leveled Reader.
