Fantastic first book for my preschooler to read herself December 29, 2007 This is the first book (ever) that my 4.5 year old read. She had been showing interest in reading, knows her letters and letter sounds so I got this book. Voila! Twenty minutes later with much prompting and encouragement she sounded out all the words in this book. My only objection is to the word "one" which is tricky for a first timer.
Young Children can memorize it December 29, 2007 Just before my son's 4th birthday I read Big Egg to him and he memorized it and read it back to me. It will always be a special book in our family.
Great for learning to read! November 27, 2007 I was having trouble getting my daughter to read out loud until we discovered Molly Coxe. This book is easy to read, has a great story, and is very funny. Perfect for kids who are just beginning to read on their own.
Great Level 1 Reader November 3, 2007 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
So many early readers out there are so different from each other even though they each label their book as Level or Stage 1. This book is a beacon. The words are short "Hen has some eggs". The font is large. There are only 2 to 4 words per line and no more than 2 lines of text per page. Best of all, this is a real story with a plot that has all the requisite parts, and a touching, reassuring ending to boot. Refreshing in light of all those mislabeled early readers and those licensed characters out there making our children into advertising fodder, this little story, easy to read indeed, is original literature and also a satisfying read for beginners. We are going to try Hot Dog by Molly Coxe now to see if it is as good.
Well done April 15, 2006 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
