Review
“Phonics is an essential part of learning how to read, and this book is a perfect fit for your classroom or home. It is developmentally appropriate, colorful, and engaging for your little learners and will encourage them to start reading independently!”
–Kristina Harrill, Sweet for Kindergarten, sweetforkindergarten.com“This book is an excellent resource for little ones learning to read! The author uses word families and beginning sight words to tie the sentences together–the perfect combination for new readers! I love that Laurin uses her knowledge as an educator to provide meaningful activities that go with the stories!”

Learning phonics, a technique that relates specific sounds with letters, is an important skill for new readers to master. The Learn to Read: Phonics Storybook is a colorful, confidence-building book that will help little learners gain fundamental reading skills while entertaining them.
The Learn to Read: Phonics Storybook includes:
- 25 funny stories–Each story utilizes the word families and predictable sound patterns commonly used in phonics. Kids will delight in the tale of a pig with a wig who can dance a jig and laugh at a fox named Jox who can dance in a box.
- Essential word families–Word families contain the same ending patterns. For example, cat, sat, and mat. These stories feature many of the word families kids need to know to become strong readers.
- Educational activities–Includes fun-filled activities at the end of each story to help kids identify and remember the sounds they just read. They’ll trace letters, do word searches, and more.
This beginning reader book introduces kids to phonics progressively–stories go from easiest to most challenging to help them build confidence. By the time they finish, they might just ask to read to you!
Order the Learn to Read: Phonics Storybook now to help teach them how to read using stories they’ll love.

Loves this book
We read one lesson everyday for a week. If he can read the story after a week, then we move on. This seems to be building his vocabulary and confidence in reading more than other books.

Love this!
My daughter missed a lot of school from being sick. So we got this to keep her caught up. It’s very easy for her to use and also makes it fun. It’s different than the other books I’ve seen. She loves to read the stories. Absolutely recommend this!

Buy this, if you have a Kindergartner! Simple short stories, similar to BOB books, but better!
This is a great, confidence building book with 25 short stories, that my rising K student likes to read to me. In fact she insists that she is reading to me, and not vice versa. After each short story there are two pages of an activity like tracing and a game like “find the words” that emphasize the word group that was the focus of the preceding story, for example one story uses the word group “pet, vet, get, wet, set, jet”, another the word group “cub, club, mug, bug, rug, hug” over the span of about 6 pictures.Here are some more of the word groups covered:-pig, wig, jig, dig, fig, big-map, gap, cap, rap, zap-Tut, mutt, hut, but, nut, gut-Ken, Jen, pen, hen, ten, pen-Kit, pit, fit, bit, lit, pit-Pat, rat, sat, mat, cat, fat-up, cup, sip, dip, tip, zip-duck, snuck, truck, muck, yuck, luck-Jack, pack, black, snack, crack, track-lick, trick, stick, click, quick, slickThere is even an index to easily find all words and word families in the back of the book.

Continuation of Bob books
This is the perfect addition for a first reader . Great for word decoding skills , and now she has multiple stories that she can “read”. On the same level as Bob series 👍

Kid Friebdly
Several charming and simple stories with equally simple illustrations. Only six sentences each story, the words mostly rhyme so this is sound (phonetically) based. My kid loved the ease of reading each sentence which in turn gave him the confidence to move on to the next. Parental input needed. Well done!

Perfect way to teach my son to read
I love the layout of this book. The book is set up where the child reads a section on words ending in -et. I love that they introduce a few words with the same ending so the child feels successful reading but don’t have to work too hard when they are first learning to read. This way they only have to sound out the first letter and then add the same ending they have already been doing. After reading a few pages there is a writing practice page and then an activity page. Then a new set of words with the same ending starts. This pattern repeats throughout the book with a different kind of activity in each phonic set. My son is really doing well with this book. He is 5 years old. I love it. It’s exactly what we were looking for.

Good practice
This book is cute, there’s a story to read and then writing practice for the words you see/hear in the story. This is great for my little who is just beginning to read 😊

increases frequency of site words
I love this book and more importantly my son loves it. There are tons of 2-page stories with worksheet for each one. The stories are fun and engaging and short and my son gets to say “I read a whole story” building his confidence in reading. We don’t use the worksheets but I do like the font on them…my son does fine with writing which is why I haven’t used the them. My only gripe is that the pages aren’t perforated for easy rip out and I’d prefer my son have something more tangible to read and hold. But I’ve gotten pretty good at ripping them out anyway. 🙂 I’m happy with it.
