What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Budding engineer Min uses her skills to save the day in this Level E easy reader, perfect for Kindergarten students to read on their own! Min wants to play, but Ann and Bess say it’s too hot to do anything. Min waves a fan, but it doesn’t help at all. What’s a girl to do? There’s a pool, but it’s empty–but clever Min finds a nearby well with some water in it. A tube, a hose, some glue, and a good idea later, Min builds a machine to draw water out of the well and into the pool. Splash! Thanks to Min, all the girls can play in the pool! Caldecott Medalist Emily Arnold McCully has created a fun tale about creative problem-solving, with simple text for emerging readers and bright illustrations depicting Min’s creation of an Archimedes screw to add extra detail. For more of Min’s adventures, check out 3, 2, 1, Go! in which Min builds a catapult. A Junior Library Guild selection! The award-winning I Like to Read(R) series focuses on guided reading levels A through G, based upon Fountas and Pinnell standards. Acclaimed author-illustrators–including winners of Caldecott, Theodor Seuss Geisel, and Coretta Scott King honors–create original, high quality illustrations that support comprehension of simple text and are fun for kids to read with parents, teachers, or on their own! Level E stories feature a distinct beginning, middle, and end, with kid-friendly illustrations offering clues for more challenging sentences. Varied punctuation and simple contractions may be included. Level E books are suitable for early first graders. When Level E is mastered, follow up with Level F.
