The Growing Reader Phonics Bible

Rating:
Summary: a great book, but...
Review: Badly bound!! I agree with the previous reviewers, we enjoy reading this bible. It's a great way to stretch my growing readers with stories they are familiar with. However, we have had this book less than a year and the end pages are already seperating from the binding. My son will be 6 soon and knows how to care for his books. I fear this one won't make it through my next 3 kids. For $14, I expected a better quality product. Please improve the binding!

Summary: A First Step to Restoring the Bible as Primary Reader*...
Review: For those of you who are interested in teaching your child to read and have been frustrated by those limited, silly, graded readers-you'll be delighted with this wonderful first Bible. In our own family's desire to restore the Bible as the primary reader in lieu of the various other readers out there, we wanted a Bible that was kid friendly and incorporated phonics. I thought it was not possible until I stumbled on this Bible! Done in a classical, grammar stage level utilizing rhyme & meter. Example: "The world was new-just two days old. What's next? Get Ready! We are told-This was the day God made the sky-And set it inits place up high-" Text covers short & long vowels, consonant sounds,diagraphs, blends, clusters and silent letters. A great compliment to any phonics system, such as Writing Road to Reading.

Summary: Super book!
Review: Found this suggested in "What Your Child Needs to Know When" with other recomendations for making the Bible the focus of learning. Great idea. What better way to learn to read than reading His Story!

Summary: Perfect! One of the greatest tools for learning to read!
Review: I bought this for my 5 year old when he was started reading. At first, some of the words were kind of hard but as parents, that's where we step in. It was such a great value. This bible has many little short stories of the bible and each story is a different word lesson. For instance, if they are studying a certain letter, you can read the story with lots of those letters highlighted in red to identify the letter they are studying. The terms are fun and easy. My son reads it to me every night. We love it!! Its a great way to introduce your little ones to the Bible and for them to study it on there own. You don't have to worry about things you don't want your children to known about or other bad books! This is definately worth it!!

Summary: Great Bible for beginning readers!
Review: This is a great Bible for beginning readers and younger. The rhymes make it interesting and funny. My girls (6 & 4) both enjoy when we read this Bible together. I'd definitely recommend it.

Summary: Help kids read and learn God's word simultaneously
Review: We started using this as supplemental reading for our then 7 year old. The chapters were short enough for daily readings and it helped him remember basic phonics.
