• Box Set: 12 Books
• Ages: 3 to 5
• Stage 1: Starting to Read

Many early readers contain words that are too difficult for a
child who has just learned the sounds of the alphabet. Not these
books! Using only the letters M, A, T and S, children can read their
first book. Kids love the stories and funny pictures, and can't
wait to read them to everybody they know.

This is our bestselling first reader, introduced 35 years ago
and used by millions of children. If your child knows the alphabet,
Bob Books Set 1 is the book to start them on the path to
reading.

Inside the box you'll find:

• 12 easy-to-read books, 12 pages each
• Consistent sounds. All letters (except Q) introduced gradually
  in this set.
• Books with only two and three letter words
• All words can be 'sounded out' (phonics based)
• Each book introduces a few new letters
• Limited sight words
• 7 to 20 words per book

ABOUT BOBS BOOKS

Bob Books is America's no.1, award-winning, learning-to-read
series trusted for over 40 years.

Bob Books is a true first reader series, designed to make
helping children learn to read simple and straightforward. The
clean layout, short words, and simple phonics make learning to read
a fun and natural step for a child that knows the alphabet. Companion
workbooks extend children's reading journey by allowing
them to practice the skills learned in the books.

Bob Books is designed to give young children the tools
to cross from learning letters to reading words. The award-winning
beginning reader book sets start slowly and progress from books
with three letter words, to books with more than one sentence per
page. By meeting children at the right level, parents are often
amazed at how quickly their child is able to sound out words when
reading their first Bob Book.

Bob Books covers four reading stages...

• Pre-Readings Skills Recognize shapes, patterns, and other
  pre-reading skills
• Stage 1: Starting to Read From learning the alphabet to
  sounding out your first words
• Stage 2: Emerging Readers Sentences become longer and
  sight words are introduced
• Stage 3: Developing Readers Words and sentences become
  longer, and new rules are introduced
