Patience the heron coaches the grown-up, and three little friends help you read smoothly.
- Patience the Heron — the grown-up’s coach — wait three seconds, point, don’t say
- Sound-It-Out Squirrel — a tricky word — say the sounds, then blend them
- Phrase Fox — read in little groups of words, not one word at a time
- Feeling Finch — read it with feeling — sound like the character
