A Great Little Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Fix-It Board Book (Board book)
David McPhail's "Fix-It" is a charming way to introduce reading to beginning or relunctant readers. Emma wakes up one morning to find the television set not working. Her dad, mom and even the repairman are unable to fix it. When the T.V. problem is finally solved, Emma no longer cares. She has found an equally enjoyable activity, reading a book. Although this book could be considered a "baby book" by more "experienced" readers, preschoolers should be able to find this book appealing. The message that the book is trying to get across to children is great. The illustrations are soft and help tell the story accurately. This book has charm and should be enjoyed by a variety of children.

This review is from: Fix-It [With Paperback Book] (Live Oak Readalongs) (Audio Cassette)
This is a good product. I bought it for a listening station in my classroom. The theme goes with another story with my reading program.
