5.0 out of 5 stars
Starting at the very beginning, February 1, 2005
This review is from: Now I'm Reading! Playful Pals, Level 1 (Hardcover)
Playful Pals is one of two Level 1 books in the Now I'm Reading! series. The set contains ten 10-page books which feature short-vowel sounds simple consonant sounds, and beginning sight words. The ten books are: Rat Naps, Fox Hops, Pig Sits, Bug on a Rug, A Bed for Pets, The Plant, Hop Frog Hop, Drips and Spills, A Trunk for Buck, and Egg Legs. The set comes with a Parent Guide booklet which explains how to get the most out of the books and help your child to be a successful reader. Each book comes with 5 incentive stickers (50 in all) to reward your little reader. Books 1-5 feature mostly three-letter words and some four-letter words. Books 6-10 feature mostly four-letter words and some five-letter words.
The books are great for holding the child's attention and interest through funny stories and pictures. My child learned to read with this series and has taken those phonics skills to more advanced levels. These are books your child will WANT to read! Highly recommend!

Homeschooler recommends these readers, October 17, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Now I'm Reading! Playful Pals, Level 1 (Hardcover)
As a homeschooling mom of a 7-year-old girl who is - make that, was - struggling with reading at every turn, let me highly recommend these books. She loves them! No more tears, tantrums, just a joyous smile of accomplishment! Take it from someone who has shopped - extensively - this is what you need for reading training without needing a master's in education yourself!

Finally, Beginner Reading to Interest Boys, November 11, 2005
This review is from: Now I'm Reading! Playful Pals, Level 1 (Hardcover)
We tried so many beginner reader books and they just did not hold the interest of my boy. I almost created my own. But then we discovered this series and since then, he just cruised through them and is now an avid reader.
The pictures are colorful, the stories are cute and intriguing, and they have stickers that relate to each story that can be used as rewards for completing each small book.
We have now moved on to the "independent" ones and he still goes back and wants to cruise through the levels 1-4 ones just for fun.
Highly recommend!!
