Summary

"Sometimes, an opossum pretends to be dead if it is scared. Opossums mothers carry their babies in a pouch. These interesting facts about this animal can be discovered in the Animals in My Backyard- Opossums book. Opossums is part of the Let's Read collection of media enhanced books designed for children ages 5 to 7. These books were created to inspire beginning readers to become independent readers. Educator and reading expert Dr. Edward Fry created a list of 1,000 instant sight words. These 1,000 sight words must be learned by students in elementary grades. By the Third Grade, students are expected to instantly recognize the first 300 of these words. The Let's Read books combine these 300 sight words with vivid color photography and non-fiction content within a Kindergarten to Second Grade curriculum framework. Opossums is an AV2 media enhanced book that gives readers access to embedded weblinks, audio and video clips, activities, and other features, such as matching word activities, slide shows, and quizzes." -- from publisher's website
