5.0 out of 5 stars child loves it!, November 10, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Wait, Skates! (Revised Edition) (Rookie Readers: Level C) (Library Binding)

My daughter LOVES this book. We found it at the library and she was able to read it by herself. When we moved cross country she searched it out at the library and now has monopolized it. I now have to buy this book so she can have it FOREVER! What is even greater is that she sees "no color" with this book as we all should!

The first time this little boy put on roller skates they went out, they went in, they wouldn't wait for him in this delightful little Rookie Reader book that will have your child laughing as he or she learns thirty new words. I like this book, but then I like all the Rookie Reader books. They are just a great way to get a little pre-schooler started on his or her reading career. And an early start is so important in today's world. Children need every advantage they can get, so if you're a parent or guardian of a precious little one, I highly recommend Rookie Reader books. The dividends they will pay in the long run will be priceless.
