A good set of beginning reader type books but I prefer the read write inc set as it has a more systematic approach in helping kids (3-4 yo) with reading by phonics.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have for kids
*by A***G on 10 March 2015*

Excellent set of books for my kid who got initiated to reading. We find the books very useful and our kid just loves to read them. Very well thought out books. Strongly recommend to kids as they find the simple sentences interesting and confidence boosting. It is money's worth when you see the happiness in the kid's face as each book is completed.
