As I have said before, teaching a child to read is a long term project and I love the idea of little phonics readers like the Bob Books so it excites me that the HarperCollins I Can Read! series is coming out with Phonics Fun packages that are little boxes full of phonics readers. While these are the same size and similar looking to Bob Books these are not the same and not a replacement, however I think they can be a fun add on and reinforcement. Using subjects that the early reader is familiar with can make this activity all the more fun.

These are so far the best beginning readers in the Phonics Fun choices that I have seen so far. Much like the wonderful early readers that feature our beloved Biscuit these little readers are short and sweet with simple sentences and small words. We are delighted to take these off the shelf and read them after finishing a phonics lesson or moving on from a Bob Book choice. I cannot wait for the second set, [b:Biscuit Phonics Fun #2|13158866|Biscuit Phonics Fun #2|Alyssa Satin Capucilli|http://www.goodreads.com/assets/nocover/60x80.png|18337411] to be released! Also look out for the sets featuring [b:Little Critter Phonics Fun|13554561|Little Critter Phonics Fun|Mercer Mayer|http://www.goodreads.com/assets/nocover/60x80.png|19124506] as well.

*Thanks to HarperCollins for providing a copy for review.*
