This book came highly recommended and so we got it for our 3 year old girl. We are 2/3 of the way through it and she's reading quite well when she's motivated(When the grandparents are over!). The book does well introducing new sounds. Overall the book has done really well but it neglects teaching rules of grammar. For instance, it introduces the word "said" and has them sound it out, but then tells them you just say it differently without explaining why. This can be confusing as they have the child ...

MY EXPERIENCE
After using this method on one of my children I was singing its praises. My son and I got to about lesson 50 and he was off on his own. We used the remaining lessons as practice.

We worked to about lesson 70, and then switched ...

I taught my granddaughter to read when she was 4 using this book. I found that while she was enjoying the reading, she was Not Ready at ALL for the writing, that totally frustrated her. Frustration is Not what you're going for, so we skipped the writing and just read and it was wonderful. One of my favorite memories is from when she was in kindergarten and I took her back to her preschool to have her read a story to the preschool class.

I used this book with my daughter the summer before she entered first grade. We had been assigned to Germany for the past three years and she had spent the last two years in German kindergarten. Unfortunately, they did not teach reading readiness at the kindergarten and focused only on activities and arts and crafts. Desperate to get her up to speed before school started, I used this book with her every day of that summer right up to the week when she started first grade. To my surprise, her first grade ...
