Likes: This one book reading curriculum is fast and easy to use. Within a few lessons, my children were able to read the simple words, then sentences, then paragraphs, then full stories! It uses a modified alphabet to signal when a vowel is long or is a blend. It slowly transitions to only regular alphabet letters. I started each of my children around 4.5.

Dislikes: The entire book is scripted for the parent. At first I followed the scripted words, but it was just too wordy, so I modified it.
