Splash and Squelch is a joyful, sensory-driven early phonics reader that follows two adventurous children as they explore the outdoors. They splash in ponds, squelch through mud, jump off logs, and tap tree stumps—making noise and mess along the way.
 
Told in simple, rhythmic sentences and using decodable phonics words, the book reinforces consonant clusters like spl, str, thr, and mp. It's part of the Songbirds Phonics series, which is designed to support early readers through structured phonics-based storytelling.
 
Full of fun action words, repetition, and engaging illustrations, Splash and Squelch helps children build confidence in reading while celebrating playful exploration.
