Good Tool to Encourage Reading

The books are great for early readers and special education, but the format is not easy to copy.

Great value!

For the price, this book is a great bargain. My first graders who hate to read LOVE to make and take home these books. They are too hard for my kindergarteners to read, but they enjoy coloring them and reading them with me and at home (I teach resoruce). The books cover a great variety of topics, from self-esteem issues, to seasonal, counting and cooking. They have equal appeal for boys and girls. The only draw back is it is hard to get the double-sided copies to line up well enough that the kids can cut, fold and staple the books themselves, but once you do, the books are easy to put together and a good size for the kids to handle and take home. One of the previous reviews was right - there is a lack of predictable language. Don't buy this if that is what you want!! But these books are great to motivate students to read, and I find I can tie into a variety of word study topics in most of the books. (wh questions, sh sounds, etc.)

personal stories on a variety of topics

Children love the sense of ownership and accomplishment when they create their own little books on a variety of topics. They can even color the pages. This increases an interest in reading and writing about several topics. The excerpts help you decide if the text size is right for your students.

A must have for emergent readers.

First grade teachers will love this book. These books are wonderful for book club. Children feel successful! They love coloring in the pictures and taking home their books to read to family members! In addition I wrote each little story out on chart paper and colored the matching pictures.
