5.0 out of 5 stars
Great for First Graders,
By Cookin' babe (Florida, United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jog, Frog, Jog - level 1 (Start to Read! Library Edition Series) (Paperback)
As a first grade teacher, I have used this book and others in this series to help emerging readers become beginning readers. Because of the phonemic approach, the interesting plot and illustrations from which to get picture clues, the students are able to read this book readily. You should see their faces when they are able to read it. It causes them to want to read more. It's also not a "baby book". The children feel that this is a more grown-up book. Thanks from a grateful teacher and her students.

Good book, great for beginning readers,

This review is from: Jog, Frog, Jog - level 1 (Start to Read! Library Edition Series) (Paperback)
My son is learning to read, and this book fulfilled his criteria: the font is large, the ratio of words per page is small enough, and the pictures are large and colorful. Most of the words could be read phonetically, but not all - it was just the right combination of accessible and challenging. All that and an amusing story with great illustrations.

Great first reading book!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Jog, Frog, Jog - level 1 (Start to Read! Library Edition Series) (Paperback)
Most "first readers" are much too advanced for true beginners. But its short sentences, repeating words, and a relatively engaging story make this one just perfect for the child who's ready to read their first book. My daughter was thrilled that she could read it all by herself. :)
