On a dark and windy night, schoolteacher Ichabod Crane rides home through the woods. But he is not alone. A mysterious figure on horseback is racing through the trees—and it has a pumpkin for a head! Inspired by Washington Irving’s classic American ghost story, this thrilling retelling introduces young readers to one of the most famous Halloween legends of all time.
With simple sentences, decodable vocabulary, and lively illustrations, this Step 2 reader makes a classic tale exciting and accessible for children just beginning to read on their own. It’s a fun, shivery introduction to American folklore, perfect for Halloween, Summerween, or any time of year readers want a light fright!
Step 2 readers use basic vocabulary and short sentences to tell simple stories for children who recognize familiar words and can sound out new words with help.
