These resources below are books that you can read with your learners that focus on the learning object by orally blending letter sounds in simple words. The books we found, were in a digital format that had adaptability in providing close captioning, options to change the language , font size and colour, verbal read aloud of the words, and control of the speed of the video. While having a UDL perspective within our learning object, we provided the links for the digital version of these books and to obtain the actual book at different stores in case your learners learn best with tangible resources or don't have access to the digital version.
If you are curious what is available even closer to you, check in your library and see if they have a tactile or auditory version of the book you're looking for!
