Overview

Welcome to Alphabetia, where every letter has an important job-but none more than Schwa! He's not necessarily a letter - he's the sneaky, hardworking vowel sound that pops up in so many words, helping them flow just right. Whether he's making the lazy ""uh"" sound, or sounding like ""ih,"" Schwa is always on duty. But what happens when Schwa decides to take a day off? Chaos in the classroom! Mayhem in the library! Snack time silliness! Without Schwa, words get wacky, and nothing sounds the way it should. From ""bay-nan-nay"" to ""pens-ill,"" the letters of Alphabetia quickly realize just how much they need their laid-back friend. Join Miss Jill and the students of Letterland School in this hilarious and educational journey that teaches kids all about the schwa sound-the most common vowel sound in the English language! Packed with playful wordplay and a story about how everyone has a unique purpose, Schwa's Day Off is perfect for teachers, parents, and new readers alike. Phonics Rule: Schwa Schwa's the sound that's never loud, It mumbles soft, it's never proud. It takes a nap in words all day, And changes vowels in a sneaky way! It never likes to take the stress, It just relaxes-more or less. So when you hear an uh instead, That's just Schwa inside your head! Written and illustrated by Ashriel Reinoso and Megan Minor.
