An Amazing Experience

I have always questioned why it is that some children are able to read fairly proficiently at age 4 (or earlier) and yet our schools systems are happy to create readers at age 6 or 7. After going through this program with my 4 1/2 year old son, it makes me sad to think of the number of children...

Excellent program for my 5 year old son

I began this program with my son in January '09 and finished it in May '09. He had just turned 5 in November. He knew his letters and letter sounds already, but he knew nothing about reading. We sat at the kitchen table every night for 15-20 to complete a lesson. It was a lot of fun and he and I...

A Great Book! So Glad I Got It

I originally bought this book for my daughter last year when she was about to start kindergarten. My hope was to have her do the book along with what she was learning at school so that she'd get the benefit of learning to read both at home and at school. Unfortunately, at age 5 my daughter was...

Great even for children with learning difficulties

My son was almost held back from 1st grade for not being able to read properly. This is something he had been really struggling with to the point where he started to hate trying to read. He would get so frustrated and angry. We bought this book as a last hope. Meanwhile we took him to get a...

Works for the right kid!

I am purchasing this book for the second time to give to one of my sons for his daughter. Totally believing in the phonics method of learning to read, I first bought it over 20 years ago when it first came out for my last two (of five) children who were then pre-schoolers. My daughter (the older...

It Really Works! My 4 1/2 -Year-Old LOVES Reading!

This is a VERY impressive reading program. Yes, it begins slowly, (teaching letter sounds) but very quickly and wonderfully builds upon itself. When words are later presented for the child to read, they have NO problem reading them because they have learned the letter sounds and know how to...

Didn't work for my son

My son is going through kindergarden again. The main reason, he can't read. I thought this book would help. He was easily bored with it. After the first two days with it, he wants nothing to do with it. It is sooo slow to begin. I thought if I skipped through some of the begininng it would...

Former third grade teacher, current homeschooling mom

I am thrilled with the outcome of this reading program. One of the main points I would like to make is the positive reinforcement that the book encourages. Using the pictures as a reward and also as a tool for testing comprehension is such a valuable tool. I really love the way my son was able...

The Best Book I Ever Bought

I was investigating various gifted private schools on behalf of my son who was going to be a first grader. During one tour, I started crying because the preschool class was learning the exact same thing being taught in my son's rural kindergarten class. At a few schools, I was told that my son...
