Good quality Review: Nice stories - I found this book just right for a new reader. The short stories are well thought out and use small words that a child beginning to read can attempt. It gave my 4 year old more confidence in reading as he could read a real book. I really liked the illustrations aswell as the stories themselves. It is an enjoyable read and would recommend. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 2,848 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 50 in Chapter Books & Readers for Children (Books) 92 in Children's Books on Reading & Writing 194 in Primary School Textbooks | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 2,156 Reviews | ## Images ![Read with Oxford: Stage 1: Julia Donaldson's Songbirds: Bob Bug and Other Stories - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71bZ-szvFlL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by E***A on 21 February 2026* Nice for the kids.
