Code Reader Bike Race Down the Mountain

This book is part of the innovative Code Reader series for struggling readers ages 8 to 12. Books in this unique series feature pronunciation keys following difficult words throughout the text. For example, the word "coyote" might be followed by: (ky-OH-tee). These pronunciation keys help make the books easier to read than traditional beginning chapter books. Bike Race Down the Mountain: Almost every day, Jake and his friend, Mia, go to the bike park to ride down the trails on their mountain bikes. Jake wants to enter a bike race, but his parents won't let him because they're afraid he'll get hurt. Even Jake is a little scared of the steep slopes. Then some unexpected help turns up.
