The absolute best "first book" for kids

I had bought several "beginner" books for my daughter who is just learning to read and all of them seemed way too hard for a real beginner. Then a friend recommended this set of books and my daughter loves them!!! They're easy enough for her to read (with some work still) but it's very motivating her to continue learning unlike the other books which are too hard and she gets frustrated and gives up.

My kids love these!!

These are books that very early readers can really read all by themselves. It is a real confidence boost for children to feel like they can read independently. Each book presents a new sound concept like the short e sound and builds on concepts learned in previous books. Books are just the right length for the attention span of a 3-5 year old early reader.

Lovely and Delightful first reading series!

We became acquainted with the Bob series a few months ago when my (then) three year old daughter started bringing books home from her Montessori classroom. She immediately fell in love them and also fell in love with reading.

The author did a great job with the series by offering just the right amount of words on a page as well as with the length of the book; each book is about a dozen pages. The early books start out with 4 words per page with more words added per page as you progress through to Book 12. After the title page of each book is a list of new sounds or punctuation marks that are introduced in that story. The simple illustrations are cute and so full of expression that they naturally lead to discussions about what the characters might be thinking/feeling in the story.

Her favorite book in this series is "Dot and the Dog", but what she loves most is that she can pick any book out of the box and read it cover to cover all by herself. She's about halfway through Series 2 and always looks forward to getting her hands on the next book.

Great books

My son and I enjoyed reading through the books. My son confidence has increased my son's confidence a lot in reading.. Thanks...

Great positive reinforcement for beginning readers

These books were recommended to me by my child's preschool teacher as a way to help reinforce her early learning. We were reading books together at home and I would encourage my daughter to read some of the words and sentences, but she became easily frustrated when she could not recognize or sound out the words correctly. These little books give her an opportunity to read a whole book without my help, which gives her a great sense of accomplishment, plus reinforces sight words and sound families like -at, -ot, etc. I think the series will continue to provide positive reinforcement and hopefully help my child develop a love of reading.
