Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read! Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1957 with the publication of The Cat in the Hat, this beloved early reader series motivates children to read on their own by using simple words with illustrations that give clues to their meaning. Featuring a combination of kid appeal, supportive vocabulary, and bright, cheerful art, Beginner Books will encourage a love of reading in children ages 3–7.
"The canine cartoons make an elementary text funny and coherent and still one of the best around." —School Library Journal.
We read this one before naptime today. Immediately after I read it, AppleBlossom, my almost preschooler got in her bed and "read" it to herself retelling by the pictures and what she "thinks" she remembers me saying. Seeing this kind of interest in a book makes me smile. It covers so many things from prepositions to colors and numbers. Touching on so many topics that we're working on in other "school" activities. I know it's been recommended to me a million times I just had not gotten to it until now. I really hope that we will be able to add more of the Beginner Books to our shelves if they would all have this sort of reception.
