Publisher Description:
Maggie and Pie are bird buddies that love to cook—but sometimes Maggie gets a little mixed up! As they bake cookies in this Level 1 Highlights Puzzle Reader, kids can use clues in the story to find the supplies they need in simple visual puzzles that double as picture support for the text. With a bonus recipe, Maggie and Pie and the Cookie Contest will appeal to junior chefs who are just discovering reading.
Each of these leveled readers feature a short storyline with an assortment of puzzles incorporated into the story. As the reading level goes up, the puzzles in the book get harder.
