About the book
It is a logical step by step reading program that can be started with a average three and a half year old and finished in 100 easy lessons. This program is as exciting as you chose to present it, and children feed off of excitement. We use lots of hugs and encouraging words as a reward for focus and hard work. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes a lesson. By the time you are done your child should have a reading comprehension of a second or third grader. I wish I would have found this first because I spent hours trying other programs that did not work. I have found that my children are able to focus better and enjoy it more if I wright the lesson with chalk on a big board or on poster board paper that I cut out into big cards. My mother in law is a school teacher who has used this and she loves it too.
