Why read A Knight with Fright with your child
This is a first-grade decodable, so let your child listen for igh words that rhyme. Words like knight, fright, flight, right, and light carry the whole story, which makes sounding out feel like a song. Ask your child what scares the knight, and what a good friend or son can do to help. Rhyming words are easy to remember, and they help the pattern stick. Fear and courage make a good talk for young readers.

Inside the book
A brave knight has one big fear: dragons flying high. His son knows a dragon with scales so bright, and together they find a way for the knight to face the sky. It is a rhyming tale about fear, family, and courage.
Children practice the igh vowel team in one- and two-syllable words, with VC and CVC patterns, blends, digraphs, and kindergarten and first-grade sight words. The rhymes make the pattern easy to hear, and the story is fun to read aloud.
