Summary: Excellent
Review: I have a ...child who is learning to read English and Spanish. I bought and tried several phonics series (some expensive), and he never got interested in them. But he loves these series (both I and II). He finds the books very amusing, laughs at the stories (very cute!), and like to read them all every time. The phonics structure seems appropriate, yet not as systematic as the other series that he never liked reading. Since my main interest is to keep his passion for reading and expose him at his own rithm to phonetic reading, these two series are just perfect.

Summary: Kindergarten help
Review: My son is in Kindergarten and loves these books! We read 4 each night. He complains that they are too short (hense why we read 4). We went to his parent/teacher conference today. His teacher said he is reading at first grade level. She has these books in her class and loves them! Highly recommended for phonics reading and Clifford fans!

Summary: My son's favorite books
Review: My son loves to have me read him these books even though they are meant to be a book that you read to yourself. He likes hearing the words and the stories features subjects little children are interested in planes, balloons, friends, etc.

Summary: Shoddily Done, but Entertaining
Review: Though my son likes these books a lot, and reading ANYTHING is helpful for him, I wish someone had proofread them! Several of the books switch tenses over and over, and one book that claims to focus on the "-ed" ending does not in fact CONTAIN words with the -ed ending -- someone in the editing process obviously switched everything to the present tense, thereby editing out that which they meant to teach!Lots of other continuity errors and extremely awkward phrasing. You'd think they'd be extra careful with educational books, but these were obviously slapped together by office temps.
