Read this to our son. Nice stories. We could point out stuff while reading.

Awesome beginning reader! I read this today with my kindergarten students. It also offers some great ideas for my beginning Latin readers that I'm writing for my students.

I love how the stories gradually got longer and harder. Emma had no problem reading these and learned quite a few new words.

The first book I ever read!!! :c) I was four years old. I remember the day, lying on my sister's bed on a blue bedspread, when the letters from the first story, "The Monkey and the Bee," started melting into words. I started screaming, "I can read!!!" My sister and mom came running in the room to see what I was screaming about. They didn't believe me until I read the whole story to them.

Great! My four year old nephew--kept asking me to read one more story.
