There are a few reasons why words might be stressed in a guided reading book. First, the author may want to emphasize a certain word or concept for the reader. Second, the vocabulary in the book may be challenging, and stressing certain words can help the reader understand and remember them. Finally, the book may be geared towards a certain reading level, and stressing words can help the reader read at a comfortable pace.
