This is an amazing reading pack for young children. My daughter is in Sr. Kindergarten and can now read almost all of these books by herself. The way they are designed with the repetition and patterns is a great aide in helping young readers develop skills with their sight words and sounding out words. Almost every day now my daughter grabs these books and randomly works through them. In this box set the 25 readers are:

What is for Supper?
Fun at the Playground
Hello, Beach
Fun With Mud
Birthday Surprise
Cold Rose
What Can I See?
I Like School
Look What I Found!
What Shines?
Bubbles!
What Do I Need?
Where Is Petey?
Hide and Seek
Hats, Hats, Hats
Shapes for Lunch
Winter Is Here
What Is Red?
I Like Stripes
When Night Comes
Sweet Treat

Easy to read level readers my grandson (Kindergarten) loved them.

I must prefer phonics readers than these repetitive sentence/picture clue readers, but we borrowed them from the library and the girls did enjoy them.

These are by far the best thing going for anyone who really wants to help a real beginning reader get off on the right foot. Few words per page---pictures help to figure out words--few pages, so my granddaughter was able to complete a book in a short amount of time without getting frustrated. I've found that most of the "Reading Level 1" books are actually still very difficult for a truly new reader. Also, the words in this book allow for "games" that parents can easily start with kids where they can spell more words based on words in the book. Example--"sand". Developed into "band", "hand", "land". My granddaughter's excitement over being "so smart" was more than worth the price of these books!!!!
