    In this morphology focused story, we meet Suffix <-ed>, affectionately known as Eddy. And Eddy has a big question: Why does the suffix -ed make three different sounds?

    Join Suffix <-ed> on an exciting trip through Morpheme Metropolis, where every word part has a job and every suffix has a story to tell.

    When Eddy creates a time machine and travels back in time, he meets a friendly dinosaur, a brave knight, and a wise philosopher, he discovers when -ed says /t/, when it says /d/, and when it becomes /id/. Along the way, he learns that being “finished” isn’t about being perfect, it’s about understanding your purpose.

    This engaging chapter-style read-aloud blends rich storytelling with clear, research-based instruction, making it a great resource for classrooms using structured literacy and the Science of Reading.

    Students will learn the three sounds of <-ed>, how suffixes change the meaning of words, why <-ed> shows verbs in the past tense and how morphemes are an important component of word building.
