Roxie,
Ruth Handel is on this list.  I'll bet she will answer your request. 
Meanwhile, ask your librarian for his or her list of predictable books and
then access the International Reading Association's Web site for wonderful
ideas on how to use these books with parents and children, and also access
the National Council Teachers of English for pamphlets that will guide you
and the parents with whom you are working. The National Center for Family
Literacy has presented training all over the country in how to use
children's literature in family education.  Perhaps we could help.  Good
Luck.
