Book Description: Start to Read! Books are the most entertaining, satisfying, and educational beginning readers you will find anywhere. The three reading levels in the series make it easy for your child to learn to read at a relaxed and enjoyable pace. Each book your child reads helps build confidence and a sense of pride.
The Fox on the Box This is a nice book for beginning readers. It has a simple story, lots of rhymes and beautiful pictures. My 4 year old likes trying to read the story and my 2 year old loves listening and looking at the pictures.
Love this book this is a super book for learning to read. my 3 year old loves it. the story is cute, the rhyming is fun and the pictures are great too. definitely a great way to introduce reading to toddlers.
Good if you want your child to GUESS read I thought this book would be great but I was wrong. It has about six sentences in the whole book. Almost all of them are: The fox ____ on the box. The filler words are jumped, played, sat, ate, etc. The word "ate" is a sight word so they don't even sound it out. A reader that can read words with ed at the end are too far along to be reading a book with all the other words being the same on every page. A beginning reader will not know the ed ending and if you tell them then they know the whole book since it's almost the same on every page. This book is lame. Check out my much better review of BOB books. I reviewed set 3.
It's a good start If you're using a reading program such as Hooked on Phonics, I would say skip this series. Most reading programs have sufficient books of this caliber for your child. If you're not using a program, this is a helpful book to work with new readers.
Great Book for Beginners! My son enjoyed this book. Its great for beginners. Gives them nice breaks with the pictures. My son is 3 years old and wanted to learn how to read. I recommend this book and The Bob Books for the beginners.
