Box Set: 10 Books Ages: 6 to 7 Stage 3: Developing Readers Bob Books: Set 3 Word Families adds something new for young readers. Consonant blends and word families introduce youngsters to the next level of reading. Word families are groups of words that have a common feature or pattern. Fluent readers recognize the patterns in words rather than sounding them all out. Consistent vowel sounds mean your child's reading development continues at a comfortable pace. In addition to eight story books, two activity books are included, designed to entice youngsters to read, write, and solve puzzles. Inside the box you'll find: 10 easy-to-read books, 16 pages each An introduction to four and five letter words (one syllable) An introduction to two syllable words Can be "sounded out" (phonics based) 25 to 40 words per book ABOUT BOBS BOOKS Bob Books is America's no.1, award-winning, learning-to-read series trusted for over 40 years. Bob Books is a true first reader series, designed to make helping children learn to read simple and straightforward. The clean layout, short words, and simple phonics make learning to read a fun and natural step for a child that knows the alphabet. Companion workbooks extend children's reading journey by allowing them to practice the skills learned in the books. Bob Books is designed to give young children the tools to cross from learning letters to reading words. The award-winning beginning reader book sets start slowly and progress from books with three letter words, to books with more than one sentence per page. By meeting children at the right level, parents are often amazed at how quickly their child is able to sound out words when reading their first Bob Book . Bob Books covers four reading stages... Pre-Readings Skills Recognize shapes, patterns, and other pre-reading skills Stage 1: Starting to Read From learning the alphabet to sounding out your first words Stage 2: Emerging Readers Sentences become longer and sight words are introduced Stage 3: Developing Readers Words and sentences become longer, and new rules are introduced Review: brilliant as ever! - my daughter was quite well advanced with her letters before she went to school but couldn't quite string the words together. I bought the first set to take on holiday and by the time we came back she was reading confidently by just sounding out the letters and forming words. This set builds on the first two, and although they are still fantastic she had moved on to other books because her confidence had soared. These then became perfect for bite-size reading sessions, or she would read to herself at bed-time. Review: Received an old edition :( - Not as described and pictured. I received an older version not June 2016 as per item description. Will return.

Unhappy
Really not happy with some of the words in these books. One word is actually a racist term. Will be reporting this as unacceptable. I understand you are only a seller but I suggest you read the book about frogs.

OK for the money
These are okay but it's worth noting that they're American - 'mom' instead of 'mum'! Confusing for English beginner readers! They are paperback and small (about 10cm square) they look quite cheap and home made - stapled together. Also they are only 2 colour - i.e. black and white with red highlights.

Perfect for my kids
Great beginner reading books for my 5 year old. Would highly recommend. Simple and short. We have found if the books are too long she looses her focus, so these Bob books are the perfect length. She feel such a sense of accomplishment after each book and is eager to keep going on. Also ordering and shipment from Amazon was easy and fast, thank you.

Must have for kids
Excellent set of books for my kid who got initiated to reading. We find the books very useful and our kid just loves to read them. Very well thought out books. Strongly recommend to kids as they find the simple sentences interesting and confidence boosting. It is money's worth when you see the happiness in the kid's face as each book is completed.

Outstanding! Great set of books for early readers
We love the bob books series for our kindergartner, who is learning to read small words. The books are cute and come in suitable sizes for a pre-schooler/ kindergarten children to read and practice their vocabulary.

Teaching a kid English while living abroad? You HAVE to have this.
I'm an American with a Japanese life and my 7 year old son was born and raised here in Japan. I've bought a lot of English study materials, and the Bob Book series has been uniformly excellent in every way. 100% recommend. Note that my kid at least wasn't self-directed enough to study by himself, except a few days he sat down to read the Bob Books. Instead, we had a mini "English Class" about an hour a day and worked through this material.
