Product Description from Amazon: All Rookie Readers actively engage young readers, encouraging language development, building fluency, and promoting independent reading. By targeting a skill, like learning about rhymes, young readers are building fundamental reading skills with the help of fun, lively, colorfully illustrated stories.


Mary’s Review:  A very cute rhyming reader for beginners, it tells the story of a father and son having fun washing the car together.  The illustrations are cute, funny, bright and colorful.  Included at the end of the book is a list of 38 easy words for your children to learn and identify.


I recommend this book for ages 4-7.
