The New Puppy

Our first Early Reader experience with the Bob Books was met with much excitement in my family. We have been working with the My First Bob Books Series (Alphabet and Pre-Reading) for several weeks not (review to come...) and so AppleBlossom recognized the Bob Books logo and was very excited to continue to “read for fun” (and educational value!). The first book in the series is The New Puppy, where Jack and Anna really want a new puppy and Mom and Dad explain the responsibilities and these two get to join an adventure on the possibilities.

Not only do I trust this book because I love the Bob Books company, but the story is great and right on par with an early reader. While at this point we're not quite there yet, she loves for me to read these to her already and then she stares at the pages and is re-telling me what happened. I think she might even recognize the word “dogs” from the repetition. The colors are great, and the pictures are fun. I'm just ridiculously giddy to know that even when we finish everything with the sets, that there are more books for my girls to explore.

This specific book works well geared toward boy or girl because of the sibling set and I think that many families are going to find that these Early Readers will become staples in their schooling much like the Sets before them. At the end of each of the Bob Books Early Readers you will find a page or a few of Flashcards to use. I think these are great. My plan is to take them out and laminate them for multiple use and durability. Then they can be used for word memorization and story plotting as to what happens next. There are many possibilities.

If these two Bob Books Early Readers are anything to show for what is to expect, well then this is one purely delighted mama.
