Grand Slam Tennis



Title: Grand Slam Tennis
Author: Cheryl Ryan

In this book, Grant and Frank are at a tennis match to decide who will win the grand fund. The purpose of this book is to practice the blended “n” at the end of words. Some examples of this are grand, fans, front, and pink. 
The pictures in this story were very colorful. This story is also great for children who are starting to read and are interested in tennis. There is a bit of a story line, but the ending is very political in saying that everyone wins. This is not necessarily true. The author does a good job of providing a variety of words that use the blended “n”.

  1. The topic of this decodable seems especially appropriate because of the US Open. Blends with the /n/ sound are difficult to hear, so this is a great book for practicing that sound for new readers.
