Add to basketPaperback. Learning to read is a big milestone in every child's life, and for Christina and Zuri, it becomes a joyful adventure filled with patience, encouragement, and discovery.In Christina and Zuri Learn to Read, young readers follow two curious siblings as they begin their very first reading journey together. Christina loves to color and draw, while Zuri loves to dance and move, but both share the same dream: they want to learn how to read. With excitement and a little nervousness, they take their first steps by learning letters, singing the ABC song, and sounding out simple words one letter at a time.As the story unfolds, Christina and Zuri learn that reading doesn't happen all at once. Some days the words feel easy and fun. Other days, the letters feel wiggly or confusing. Instead of giving up, they keep practicing. They read cereal boxes, street signs, books, and silly jokes, discovering that reading can happen anywhere. Along the way, they encourage each other, celebrate small successes, and learn that mistakes are part of learning.With the support of their big sister Maya, caring adults, and a lovable dog named Pickles, Christina and Zuri gain confidence as they begin reading real words and simple stories. When it's time to read in front of others, they face their fears together and discover that believing in themselves makes all the difference.By the end of the book, reading has become a happy part of everyday life. Christina and Zuri read at home, in the classroom, at the library, and snuggled up at bedtime. Reading is no longer scary-it's exciting, comforting, and empowering.Designed for beginning readers, this book uses simple sentences, repetition, phonics-friendly language, and colorful illustrations to support early literacy development. Activity pages encourage children to trace words, recognize letters, and reflect on their own reading journey.Written by children's author and educator Phyllis Harrington, Christina and Zuri Learn to Read reminds young readers that learning takes time, practice, and encouragement-and that every child can learn to read.
