There's no stopping Raymond in this beloved Step 2 reader! He likes to do everything fast!

From brushing his teeth, to racing to school, to making new friends—there's no one speedier than Raymond. In three easy-to-read stories by award-winning, bestselling creators Vaunda Micheaux Nelson and Derek Anderson readers get to follow Raymond on a typical super-fast day, see him meet his future best friend, Roxy, and run a race!

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. Rhyme and/or rhythmic text help children decode the story.
"Great book for beginning readers! Raymond is full of energy and ambition and is on his way!" —First Book Marketplace
