(03/09/10) From the Author- Whereas the short vowels (a, e, i, o and u) are the original stars in Bob Books Sets 1 - 4, readers who have advanced all the way to Set 5 begin learning long vowels, the fascinating new stars of the alphabet. These two new concepts stimulate your reader by opening the door to longer stories and more complex spellings: The silent, magic e at the end of a word makes the vowel say its own name. For instance, mat becomes mate. Sam becomes same. Can you think of other words that are changed by the magic e ? It s a game! When two vowels go walking, the first does the talking. This means: When two vowels team up as a pair, the first vowel says its own name as in, train, rain, coat or boat. Titles in Set 5 include The Game, Joe s Toe, and The Train. Two use the magic e , one follows the walking rule. It s really exciting to see young kids understand these new rules and then put them into action. Set 5 includes the most complex words and sentences of any of the Bob Books...See less

(03/09/10) From the Author A natural progression from Bob Books Sets 1 and 2, in Set 3 kids encounter stories with longer endings; y, ed, and ing. Longer words with 4 or 5 letters can still be sounded out; repetition of sounds and words throughout the books really help children succeed as well. Sight words (listed in each book so you can point them out) become easier as children learn to anticipate words in the context of the story. Sentences are limited to one or two per page. This gentle, progressive approach really appeals to kids and builds early confidence and skills. This is the magic of Bob Books! Even after many years of teaching, watching children make that giant first step into reading still thrills me. The pride in their eyes, their triumphant grasp of a difficult concept; the sudden understanding of how blending sounds into words creates reading.
