The Fly Flew In (I Like to Read® Level C) par David Catrow
With very few words (many of them prepositions), Catrow tells the story of a fly causing mayhem during a concert. The illustrations are gross and funny. This would be a great choice for a struggling reader because it's fun and simple. I imagine after a few paired readings many children will be able to memorize it and then read it fluidly.

I'm not a huge fan of Catrow's illustration style, but it's a cute story and kids will enjoy the humor.
This book is appropriate for all ages. It introduces the Preamble to the Constitution. The topic is a great to introduce a unit of study and discuss with students. This book can be an effective instrument in promoting critical thinking.
