Publisher's Synopsis
Question: How quickly can a child learn to read? The answer? In much less time than most people think. In fact, children can become 'functionally literate' in only a few short months. Consider this: just 25 most commonly used words make up about one-third of all words written or spoken in English. The first 100 most frequently used words make up about half of all written and spoken English. These are the most important words when it comes to understanding and creating correct English sentences - and they can be learned in just a few short reading sessions! Additionally, the first 1,000 most commonly used words makeup more than 99% of all written and spoken English. By using these enjoyable, simple and easy-to-use books, you can guide your child's learning so that they will easily master these crucial key words and most important structures in just a few months. By drawing on his more than 40 years' experience in teaching children to read, teacher and author Philip Gibson has developed what may be the most comprehensive, systematic and effective series of simplified early readers ever produced.
