Neglects Basic Rules 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.

Worked well for one child, not the other MY EXPERIENCE

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.
