   As far as I know, this is the last set of the BOB books. I just wish there were more. Loved all of them.

   My son just started Kindergarten about 3 months ago, he just turned six. I had taught him chess, and many other logical skills (I’m an engineer) but neglected to nurture his reading needs. After his first semester review I was shocked to find out that he was struggling with is site words. The day I got home from his school I ordered all the Bob’s Books.

   My son started reading them almost immediately, in fact on evening he read 12 of them back to back. He went to bed to night begging to read some more, he had already read 9 of them, he wants to read the WOW books and he’s working through the A and B series first. He recogonizes his rapid reading skills and it’s getting him really excited. It’s amazing to see your child bouncing with excitement to get to read the next book.

   It was stated in another review that your children won’t learn on their own, but I disagree. My son rereads the books after we go through them. He even reads them to his four year old brother and he teaches him with the same skills that I used to teach him which makes him an even better reader.

   Bottom line, my child learned to read multi-syllable words withing a week of receiving these books. I was very upset after leaving his first review at school, I felt like I had made a serious error in my kids education, these books turned it around. He came from being the worst reader in his class to the third best in just a couple of weeks, Amazing. BTW, these books help reinforce the site words used in the Kindergarten curriculum.

   Would highly recommend for anyone needing books for new readers. Gradual introduction of new words and sounds. Individual books are short enough to keep my daughters attention and interesting enough to make her want to read on her own.

   As a homeschooling Mom of a kindegarten child…I think these books are great. They have just enough so they’re not “baby” books, but not too much where my guy gets discouraged. Great for classical education minded children!

   These books are great for that early reader. The first set is the best, I did find the next sets got much harder very quickly. Would have been nice to have some more that were really easy still. The same four words get really boring really fast for the adult and child.
