After searching at the bookstore, and only finding stories with witches and other strange creatures, I almost gave up searching for a good series for my daughter to use to practice her reading. This is perfect, and so captivates her heart. She is enchanted with the characters, and she really lights up with the message in each one. I could not recommend this series HIGHLY ENOUGH!
We were surprised to see how quickly and fluently she reads each page with excellent comprehension. Each book has words that use phonics along with sight words and other beginning reading strategies like picture clues and common sense meaning. Great buy for a good price.
