Instead of a single continuous narrative, "On Cherry Street" is a collection of short, independent stories centered around the everyday experiences of children living on or near Cherry Street.
The stories depict common childhood activities and settings relevant to young children, such as going to school, playing at home, visiting a local store, listening to stories, spending time on Cherry Street, and enjoying happy days on a farm.
The book systematically introduces 171 new words, building upon the foundation laid by the primer. Examples of these words include "school," "bus," "wonderful," "groceries," "feather," "pancake," "bicycle," "squirrel," "goat," and "tomorrow." The use of repetition helps reinforce new vocabulary and build reading fluency.
Condition: the book is in overall good condition. There is a small spot of model glue on the spine (see photos). The spine and binding are good with no loose pages. The inside pages are in excellent condition, with the exception of pages 115 and 123 which have small one inch long tears..
