A great way to teach children reading skills. This book uses
word families, rhythm and repetition to tell a fun story
with an interesting twist. Teachers, parents, and kids love
its unique combination of simple words and sounds, which
captivates their interest as the tale unfolds. In the story,
two children try to tell Mr. Brown about a strange situation
in the living room. He doesn't believe them at first, but
later discovers that they're telling the truth--much to his
surprise. Children will enjoy reading the easy words and
looking at the beautiful pictures and will ask to read this
book again and again.
A Cow on the Couch! is a picture book that describes
what a group of young children see. In the book, the kids
tell Mr. Brown that they see a cow on the couch, which leads
to a series of questions from Mr. Brown about that cow and
how it came to be inside on the couch.
Each page builds on the overall premise of the book - that
the kids in the story need to tell Mr. Brown something very
important. As they continue, Mr. Brown asks follow up
questions, and the kids are able to answer each one and
continue adding more detail to the story. The book
encourages observations and communicates the principles of
answering questions with basic information (who, what,
where, when, why, etc.) in a humorous and delightful way.
"There's a cow on the couch!"
"Where?"
"In the house. There's a cow on the couch in the house!"
Acting as the perfect compliment to the story, the
illustrations throughout add to the inquiries from Mr. Brown
and the answers from the kids. The expressions on the
character's faces jump off of the page, and will help young
pre-readers understand that the characters are trying to
communicate more details to one another. These illustrations
are a lovely addition to the story itself, and will leave a
lasting impression with young readers and adults.
The book would be well suited for young pre-readers and
younger readers who are learning how to communicate details
and refine their storytelling when talking with grown ups.
It will also be a hit with beginning pre-readers who enjoy
sounding out words, and those who enjoy the anticipation of
a story that builds.

Reading With Giggles
& Games By Patty Tew
The Reading With Giggles & Games Learn-To-Read System
works in a dramatically effective way because it uses
several proprietary learning strategies, in combination,
that create an ideal learning state in the mind and body
of the student. No other system combines these learning
strategies in the same way and no other system has been
able to demonstrate more effective learning results. The
children are happier, they learn faster and their
teachers and parents are amazed at how much more quickly
these students learn to read than other students who are
taught with other outmoded, traditional teaching
methods. When you child starts to recognize letters,
numbers and their associated sounds they are ready for
the Reading With Giggles and Games program. This
wonderful system can help you, as a parent, be much more
effective in your mission to help your child to learn to
read without the hassle and frustration that often
accompanies the process with other traditional learn to
read methods.

For over 25 years, Patty Tew, M.Ed. has been
teaching young readers to read. At first she
employed traditional methods, but soon realized that
the old fashioned approach just wasn't working as
she hoped that it would. Little-by-little, she
observed that some things that she tried worked much
better than others. She began to document these
teaching strategies, and over time, developed a
novel and unique curriculum and methodology to teach
young readers to read, in far less time and with far
less frustration than her peers using traditional
methods. Patty Tew is the originator of the Reading
with Giggles and Games system and is passionate
about helping young students learn to read. She has
taught elementary school since 1984 and earned her
Master's Degree in Teaching and Learning from
Brigham Young University in 1990. Her emphasis was
in instructional Science and she helped develop and
test phonics instruction. She authored over 100
beginning readers in the process. She was an
assistant professor doing research on the
Neurological Impress Method of teaching reading.
Patty was employed by IBM as an Educational
Consultant to a team working on a computer based
Neurological Impress Method reading program. Knowing
that no two children learn exactly alike, Patty has
formulated and systemized a combination of the best
practices in teaching reading. Her extensive
training in using music to teach reading has been
instrumental in creating this powerful reading
method. Through experience, Patty found that
children learn best when they are actively involved,
and learn more permanently and quickly when music is
included. ARTS Inc. (Artistic Resources for Teachers
and Student) selected Mrs. Tew as Outstanding
Arts-in-education Teacher for the State of Utah in
1999. Patty has taught thousands of children to read
using the system that has been perfected and proven
over the years. Parents, educators, and
administrators are all enthusiastic supporters of
Reading with Giggles and Games, which combines
phonics and side-by-side reading (the neurological
impress method), integrated with music, games, and
humor to provide the perfect balance needed to help
young children learn to read.
