My son read this book over the summer when he was five, and learned to become a fluent reader before starting the first grade. This book is a little bit harder to read for beginner's than the Treasury of Dick and Jane. I would say it's more beginner first grade level. I would start with the Treasury of Dick and Jane first, and then this one. This is a cute book about sweet characters that we grew up with. My son loves these books and still likes to read them. I recommend these books to all children who are beginner readers. As long as they know the beginning parts of sounding words out, they will sail through these books!

I bought this for my 4 year old daughter for Christmas. I read the book for her at first, then I would point to the words as I read them and waited for her reply. Sure enough by the second day, she said the words with me! She is very excited to read and reread this book. The words are easy and repetitive, which is key. My daughter claps her hands for herself as she reads to me. How cool is that!! If you can't get this book, at least read something to your kids. Got my $ worth and a lot more...my daughter became a reader!!

This review is from: The World of Dick and Jane and Friends (Treasury) (Dick and Jane) (Hardcover)

My kids started in PreK reading these. I learned to read with these and thought they were great. My kids did too. They are so good because they start out so easy and repeat so much the kids gain confidence in reading very fast and want to keep on. Many of the other easy readers are too frustrating because there is not enought repitition.

My girls now are in 2nd grade and both read at 6th grade level. I think these books helped alot. I also think you must read to them everyday and make reading a normal part of their everyday life. If they love it they will be good readers.
