My son finds reading very hard, he takes this book with him to bed every night and he is trying very hard with it. He reads the stories he knows well over and over again. This is improving his reading. Mrs A.

My cousin’s child used the book to learn to learn very quickly. All she does now is read and write all the time. Ms R

She loves the stories in the book; she says them off by heart. She likes to write the stories down from memory, this is making her writing better. Mr I
