A series of fun stories using very simple synthetic phonic-based text.

Synthetic phonic learning is the process of reading by sounding the individual sounds of a word and then blending them together to read the word as a whole.

With fold out flaps to make the reading experience more interactive.

Written in conjunction with an educational psychology expert.

REVIEW

by Julie Bedwell and daughter Samantha Platt, age 5.

Published by Usborne Books, Phonic Readers, hardback, RRP £4.99

My daughter really enjoyed being able to read this book herself. It was short, easy to read and a fun story.

The fold out pages added extra enjoyment to the book. Ideal book for a young child who is just learning to read by themselves.
