Early Chapter Books

“One of the most magical times in parenthood…is watching our children learn to read ““ first to sound out letters and syllables, then words, and then whole sentences. And before you know it, they too can know the joy of being transported beyond their bedroom and to all kinds of magical worlds: worlds with unicorns and princesses and talking animals, or worlds more like our own but filled with fun, interesting characters who can start to feel like friends. Early chapter books or reader series are especially great for this age group, returning to familiar people and places over and over again, whether they still enjoy being read to or hiding under the covers with the flashlight and a paperback.”
