If you have an emerging reader in your life, you may have heard of the book series called Bob Books. This popular series also has an app where you can have a fun, interactive experience with the books. It can be a new way to help a child learn to read. The app focuses on spelling and letter knowledge in stages that build. An interactive format like this can help motivate and encourage children who are more reluctant to begin reading. If you are a fan of the BOB series or looking for something to aid a child in early reading, try the free Bob Books Reading Magic Lite app for Apple. You can also purchase the full version for $3.99.
