Bob Books

bob booksI have some serious love for Bob Books. If you haven’t found these revolutionary little gems they are a series of books that teach very basic phonics and context with simple line drawings. Each set progressively teaches more complex concepts as they are read. I’ve used Bob Books with my own children, I am constantly recommending them to friends and family with young pre-readers. Quite by accident I learned that older children who’ve missed essential phonics foundations are suddenly “getting it” after reading Bob Books to younger siblings. Not too spendy, these books are worth their weight in gold.
