Frog on a Log (Usborne Phonics Readers) 4 reviews
Phil Roxbee Cox
Usborne Books, 2006
Great Books!
All of the Easy Words To Read series are fantastic for children just learning phonics. My reading delayed and dyslexic students finally have something fun to read. Great illustrations, nice little story line and best of all, they are made up of mostly phonetic words that repeat. This repeation and phonetic approach is of major importance when instructing young readers with reading difficulties. I ...

Who Were the Vikings Internet-Linked (Starting Point History)4 reviews
Jane Chisholm, Phil Roxbee, ...
E.D.C. Publishing, 2002
Very Entertaining and Informative!
We thoroughly enjoyed this book during our unit study of the Vikings. I read the whole book aloud to my 8yo daughter and 5yo son over the course of several days. They found it fascinating and so did I.
It is written in such a way that it is *very* complete and encompasses a HUGE amount of information on the vikings, yet it is also still very accessible and quite enjoyable. The ...

Usborne Books, 2006
learn to read
My 6 year old daughter brings home books from school to read with repetitive sentences and some difficult words (which she uses pictures clues to figure out). I'm sure this is helping her learn to read, but I can't help notice that she basically memorizes the book. Other easy readers have many 2 or 3 syllable words which she finds difficult to sound out. This is a great book for teaching some ...

Who Were the Romans? (Starting Point History)2 reviews
Phil Roxbee Cox
Usborne Books, 2002
A Great Introduction to Roman Culture!
I would especially recommend this book for homeschooling parents who want a lively and interesting introduction to Roman culture for their children. Written in question and answer format, children will learn how modern culture compares and contrasts with the ancient world. How do you put on a toga? Did Roman women wear makeup? How were mosaics made? What was it like inside a roman house? ...

Fat Cat on a Mat (Phonics Board Books)1 review

E.D.C. Publishing, 2002
Clever Fat Cat is a Charmer!
My 2 year old daughter loves this book! She has memorized it and can "read" it to herself! Fat Cat finds himself in a tree and becomes responsible for the eggs in a birds' nest. Fat Cat's friends want him to play but he declines as he is helping the little birdies hatch from the eggs. It teaches a a very timely lesson of accepting responsibility for your actions. This is not a lift-a-flap ...

Phil Roxbee Cox
Usborne Books, 2001
New version is great
This is a more sturdy version than the previous version. Adding words is great. And it doesn't mean that you have to read the words when going through this book. We have all adlibbed, haven't we? It can be just a search book or a read to them book. Use it any way you want. It's great. It's bright, colorful, and holds up to baby's use. There are so many things to talk in this book. A great ...

My Daughter's Favorite
My parents gave this book to my daughter when she was 9 months old. It is now her favorite! She loves the variety of the touch and feel items in the book. She plays with and we read the book every day. It is pefect for her age and cuter than other touch and feel books.

Ted's Shed (Usborne Phonics Readers) 1 review

Usborne Books, 2006
Shed or not?
This one I really like the words. Its almost musical. Unlike the other ones in this series it doesn't rely on his friends to solve problems, but more invention on Teds part. You can use these books to reinforce color recognition for the real young, word recognition for the toddler and recognizing how to work together while learning to read for the pre readers. This whole series is great for all ...

Don't Be a Bully Billy (Cautionary Tales) 3 reviews
Phil Roxbee Cox
Usborne Books, 2004
It's okay make sure you discuss
I bought this book hoping to help our 3 year old understand what makes a bully and how to not be one. He loves this book and asks me to read it over and over again. As long as you discuss what Billy is doing is not nice, this book may be of some help. However, there is one adult shown in the book. He never seems to be aware of what Billy is doing. In one picture he seems to be glancing over is ...

A Great Story for Little Ones
Our 3 year old daughter loves this book. It has great,colorful pictures and she needs to find a little yellow duck hiding on every page. So even if the cute simple story can't hold your little ones attention finding the duck might! The book also includes information for parents of new readers about phonics. It breaks down the easy words in this book into phonemes on the back of the cover.

Great book for Kids
This is a hilarious book, that I initially bought because my son is named Jack. Both my kids (3 and 1) love this book. It has great pictures, rhyming words, and a message about what happens to kids who are not very nice. We loved this book so much that we bought the others-Don't be a Bully Billy!, Don't tell Lies Lucy!, and Don't be Greedy Graham!. I highly recomend this for toddlers and ...

I love these books! Toad is innovative and problem solves his way through. If you have any of these books pay attention to the yellow duck, it becomes a game to my son to find the duck! This whole series is great for all children from 18 months to beginning reading. It rolls when reading to your children the art is whimsical and the stories have some plot and are focused on problem solving ...

Find the Kitten (Rhyming Board Books)6 reviews
Phil Roxbee Cox
Usborne Books, 1984
17 month old Pip thinks this is the best "Find it" book.
This book is very good because I get to point, clap and meow a lot. My grandma always laughs and acts surprised when I find the kitten, but I don't know why, because it really wasn't so very hard after the first time. Since there aren't any words, we get to talk about the cute pictures. I call the cat Edgar because that is my cat's name. We had so much fun Grandma bought me four more books in ...
