Product Description
You've prepared your child for reading - refrigerator magnets down low and easy to reach; letter sounds taught. Your child can proudly spell his or her name. Perhaps he can identify the "stop" and "open" signs as you drive in your car. He or she is ready for the next step into reading. Inside the colorful box, the bright red cover beckons. On the first page, the letters: M - a - t. Your child says the sounds: mmmmm, aaa, ttt. Then, faster: "Mat." Your youngster has read his first word! "Sam", "sat" and "on" complete the vocabulary, and suddenly your child can say, "I read the whole book!(tm)" That is the magic of Bob Books. After 13 years of teaching 3, 4 and 5-year-olds, watching a child make that giant first step into reading still thrills me. The pride in their eyes, their triumphant grasp of a difficult concept, and opening their world to the excitement of books and reading, has brought me many years of satisfaction. Bob Books were specifically designed to facilitate that ah-ha moment, when letters first turn into words. By slowly introducing new letter sounds, using consistency and repetition, and stories that fit short attention spans, your child will quickly find his or her own ah-ha moment.

 Very Pleased November 17, 2008
I've been looking for books like this for a long-time. It gives my young reader a great boost to be able to sit down and read a book all by herself. The CD is a nice bonus.
My son feels like a big boy. November 10, 2008
I bought these books because my son loves to read. He has been reading simple "stories" that I write on the computer but never real books of his own. When these came he just whizzed through the first series. I took them to his Kindergarden class because they were too easy for him. One to Series 2 and 3. These offered a bit more challenge and he loves them.
The stories really aren't that interesting. I believe he would agree. Each night he gets to read a book to me then I read a book to him. He feels much more involved in bedtime storytime.
Great series.
 LK October 17, 2008
This is one of the best purchases I have ever made. My five-year-old began reading the very first day. I can't recommend these books enough. A great buy.
Helped My Child to Read October 16, 2008
My sons's teachers recommended this book to help support his interest in reading. We love them as each book is managable in size and he felt quite accomplished finishing each book and each larger box (and getting a prize too!) Strongly recommend.
Excellent Reading Development Books. The BEST i've found October 12, 2008
these are the best reading development books I've found. We have tried the Beginning Level 1 reading books often offered in children toy shops and never liked them or found them easy to use. BOB books have simple and very clever illustrations and the words used are the perfect first words for beginner readers. The books set the little readers up for success. I have just purchased the more advanced series. These are great for 4 - 6 year olds depending on where they are with alphabet understanding and phonics.
