Cosas nuevas

Cosas nuevas is a joyful collection of three decodable stories-Los zapatos de Ema, Coco hace karate, and Un collar para Bego a-designed to support early literacy development in Spanish. These stories follow familiar characters through everyday moments: outgrowing favorite shoes, overcoming nerves at karate class, and solving the mystery of a missing dog collar.

Each story is written with intentional phonics progression, targeting syllable patterns and letter-sound correspondences that support decoding in Spanish. With vibrant illustrations, comprehension questions, oral language prompts, and integrated nonfiction " Sab as que...?" pages, this book blends foundational skills, vocabulary building, and content knowledge in one engaging format.

Perfect for small group instruction, intervention, or independent reading practice, Cosas nuevas invites children to decode with confidence and connect with characters they'll come to love.
