For you parents considering the "hooked on phonics" system for your child . . . .
A Frickin' Elephant
Jake is 5 years old and learning to read.
He points at a picture in a zoo book and says,
'Look Mama! It's a frickin' Elephant!'
Deep breath ... 'What did you call it?'
'It's a frickin' Elephant, Mama!
It says so on the picture!'
and so it does ...
' A f r i c a n Elephant '
Hooked on phonics!!!
