Book Description

5 and upK and upBeginner Books(R)
What could make a better present than a classic Beginner Book? Six of them—for less than the price of two! We've taken the complete text and art of three beloved P.D. Eastman titles: Go, Dog. Go!, Are You My Mother?, and The Best Nest; Robert Lopshire's Put Me In the Zoo (the first of his books featuring the character Spot); Marilyn Sadler and Roger Bollen's It's Not Easy Being a Bunny (the first PJ Funnybunny story); and Mike McClintock's charming, cautionary tale A Fly Went By, and bound them together in one sturdy hardcover omnibus. A perfect introduction to reading that will whet young readers appetites for additional books in the Beginner Book series.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent collection of Dr. Seuss books, November 13, 2009
This review is from: Big Blue Book of Beginner Books (Beginner Books(R)) (Hardcover)
My daughter is 5 years old and in kindergarten. She loves this book. The words are simple and easy to read and the repetition and rhyme help keep her attention. Having the stories in a collection makes her feel like she's reading a big kid's book, like her 8 year old brother. Together as a family, we have enjoyed reading this book numerous times.

The stories include the following:
* "It's Not Easy Being a Bunny
* "Go, Dog, Go!"
* "Are You My Mother?"
* "The Best Nest"
* "Put Me in the Zoo"
* "A Fly Went By"

I'd recommend this as a beginning reader book for kindergarten and first grade. Older kids may think they are beyond Dr. Seuss, but my son still enjoyed them last year in second grade and even now, when we read together.

Younger children will appreciate the rhythm and rhymes, the colorful pictures and the silliness.

I do not mind reading and re-reading the stories over and over and over. There is a hypnotic appeal to them that works on adults, too.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Value, October 14, 2009
This review is from: Big Blue Book of Beginner Books (Beginner Books(R)) (Hardcover)
I purchase a lot of books for my toddler granddaughter. This was a great buy with 6 stories in one hard covered book. Right now I'm reading it aloud to her. The repetition and rhymes are great for young readers. Warning to buyers...this is not a board book so unless your child has been taught to handle books carefully, I wouldn't give it to a young child unsupervised. I wish these stories were available on cd too.
