The playful stories engage kids and provide a new challenge to advance their skills.

- 8 small, hilarious, easy-to-read books: 16-24 pages each, 12-78 unique words per book
- A parent guide with tips for helping your child learn to read
Each book includes:
- Repetition of words and sounds, which helps children decode the text
- Simple sentences with more complex words (“Jim slipped into the pond.”)
- A list of new consonant blends and vowel combinations introduced in that book
- Friendly, simple illustrations that add fun and do not distract from the words
