My kid likes the books. They are simple and the illustrations are nice. These are very tiny, rougly 10-page books.

Good

Perfect for a toddler learning to read. They are well illustrated too!

Set of 25 colourful books filled with pictures and on each page one sentence easy for beginners to read.

The size of the book is a size of our palm and only one line of sentence in one page.

I ordered all 3 sets of these books for my Kindergartner. He already recognizes a bunch of sight words and I wanted to get a great collection of books that would give him lots of practice and lots of success! I taught reading enrichment classes to early readers for ~9 years, so I knew what I was looking for; these are perfect for getting a youngster started! Another reviewer complained that the sets did not differ in difficulty from A to B to C, but I have to disagree. In my picture, a book from set A is at the top, set B in the middle, and set C at the bottom. All three are alike in their simple sentence structure, but there are key differences. Set A books use a very short sentence, usually with only one word changing per page. This lets the child read independently, recognizing the pattern and using visual clues to figure out unknown words, thereby experiencing a lot of success and feeling pride in their reading skills. Set B uses slightly longer sentences or even two sentences per page, and the words that change frequently have more syllables. The pictures still help with figuring it out, though, so your child can move through the text comfortably, learning to not be intimidated by long words (very important!). Set C books seem to focus on words that have challenging phonics elements (like "grew" -- not an easy word to sound out until you've learned that digraph, which usually happens sometime in mid 1st grade) or longer and more diverse sentences with multi-syllabic words. Don't get me wrong; these books are little half steps in the reading process and are all early-mid Kindergarten level, but in setting up your child for success -- giving them confidence and the willingness to try -- these early experiences are crucial! I am very pleased with the purchase and am excited for my kid to try them. UPDATE 10/1/21 -- I will modify my above statement for at least one of the books. In the A set, there is a book called "Almost Spring" that I feel belongs in set B or possibly even set C. It uses the present participle (-ing) on almost every page, and while a child at this level may know or be able to figure out the root word (for instance, "melt" or "peep"), they are very likely to be thrown by "melting" and "peeping." Just remember to give your child lots of support and encouragement when they read, and if they seem to be struggling, just tell them the word and let them move on. :) P.S. Other people reported getting some duplicates in their boxes; I did not. Seems to be random. Perhaps if you get a duplicate the seller could send you the right one. Customer image

Love that each book has enough details and realistic illustrations alongside repetitive sentences that kept my toddler engaged and wanting to say the words before I could even finish reading it. Great beginner book set to spark interest in reading!

Excellent book good for starter

2歳9ヶ月で初めての英語本です 簡単な文章で繰り返しが気に入っているようでお気に入りの言葉はすぐに真似して言うようになりました 8ページと言う短さも良いようです こちらはアプリに対応していないようで次回はアプリ対応の物を買います

Chaque livre illustré avec un concept/mot répété dans de petites phrases dans différents contextes C'est tres bien, amusant et non rébarbatif pour apprendre des mots en anglais.
