- A great start
- Ok, yes the artwork is poor and the stories are so simple I'm not even sure they classify as stories but they are the easiest beginning readers. There are no words in them that your child won't be able to read if they are truly ready to read (they know the consonant and short vowel sounds). They are short, simple and satisfying to a young emergent reader. These books are not meant to be literary works of art and should not replace reading time. I do not read these books to my son. He reads one a day and that's it! And then together we read many other much more exciting books. Point is, he's reading, enjoying it, and will soon be ready for the more interesting readers that have many more words in them. Start with Bob and 12 days later (there are 12 readers in each set) you'll have a very proud reader :)

- They aren't for everyone
- I am in a family of artists. These books are terrible. I don't know why I expected them to be more interesting because Amazon shows what they look like, but they are line drawings with basic words. I read my children poetry with beautiful prints or we sing and follow along or we draw to go along with poetry. I showed the first book to my two year old and she started crying.

- Bob Books are great!
- I recently purchased Bob Books Set 1, my daughter loves them. She is already on the third book. She loves being able to read the books on her own. She can't wait until we sit down to read another one. I would recommend this product for anyone whose child is ready to learn how to read.

- Just okay - the words run together
- I was excited to get these books for my son. But they're marginal. My main problem with them is that everything is handprinted, and poorly. The words run together - the spaces between words are often the same as the spaces between letters in words. So it's hard to distinguish separate words. Not good for beginning readers.
