[Emerson and Theodore · Rating 4 out of 5]

I think I need to reset my expectations. These Early Readers are a little flat on plot and character development. But they are indeed good easy readers...."The cat is fat....the dog is old....the dog cannot chase the cat....and so on....." We read together...mostly Emerson reading the words and sounding out some he doesn't know...and the fun is in looking at the pictures and then also asking retention questions about the sentences. I ask follow up questions like, "why do you think the dog can't catch the cat?" His retention is improving.

We read this in French and it was fine.

Good for very early reading. Plot is about what you'd expect for a book comprised of 3 letter words

[Tricia · Rating 2 out of 5]

okay for a book that only incorporates 20 words. somewhat fun book, even for an easy reader. dog is old and cat is fat...and that begins the story.

If you are five years old it could probably get four to five stars....

As a first reader, this book is simple and great. I'm not sure how much I appreciated the emphasis on ¨old¨ and ¨fat¨.
