The book I learned to read with, and a kids' classic.

My first reader. I was so proud to read the WHOLE THING by myself.

I have been doing daycare for over 20yrs. I have taught close to 100 kids to read with this series. And I mean REALLY read. Most enter as the top reader in their kindergarten classes. Years later they are still exceptional readers. My daughter was tested at 8th grade level reading in the 1st grade and she was not an unusual case. I believe that the systematic use of this phonics book with the workbook are essential to growing a good reader. The bonus is all the children enjoy this series. I have never heard one complaint when we begin our work. The lessons are simple, short and last a lifetime!

A simple coming-of-age story about a pig discovering his passion for the jig. I'm really not sure why the author never won some kind of prize. At the least, they could've named him the poet laureate of the United States. This man is a national treasure, people! Now you know why i'm so angry all the time.
