Title: Far less than adequate
Product review: I have tried several books and software to teach my children. This book was my least favorite. The idea is good but that is all. Nearly everything in it is poorly done. The text does not need to be so distorted. The lessons are painful in their insistence on doing it according to the script. I would like to meet the person who can get the child through the instructional drivel. The stories are cute but always too long. This is a book with major flaws and is not for younger kids. If you have a child who is less than enthusiastic to learn to read, he will hate this overly regimented, artificial approach. I discovered another book - The Reading Lesson, used and liked it very much. Similar approach but what a difference!
