3 1/2 Year Old Loves this Book

My 3 1/2 year old loves this book. And I love it too. For me, it's fun and easy to read. There is only one sentence on each set of pages, and it is in large letters. After each page that I read, my son repeats it. I don't mind reading this one again and again.

The Real McCoy

An excellent book for beginning readers

My 6 year old is just beginning to read and can read this book all by himself. The pictures really helped him to understand the text. He is very proud he can read it with no help! I was excited to find it here and intend to buy other Byron Barton books.
