But the set of little 12 books is brilliant, worth the wait... My first time reader loves them!! He found them super fun. Super easy for a child that just started to read `decoding cvc` way. Review: Excellent for teaching your child to read - My daughter (nearly 4) is very comfortable with her alphabet - largely thanks using to LeapFrog Fridge Phonics for the past year or 2. I bought these books to go the next step, and take advantage of her interest in letters and words. Schools are all using phonics to teach reading these days, so to fit in with what they learn at school, do use a phonics system. They are perfect. 12 very short books based on (book 1) 4 sounds, and adding 2-3 sounds for subsequent books. A few minutes work will finish the book. Make sure your child is reading ready first. A sound knowledge of the alphabet, and an interest in words is important. Ensure that they know the phonic (sound of the word) and not just the letter name. You will need an understanding of phonics yourself - not all of us learned to read this way - and some sense of how to blend the sounds to make a word. A "teach your child to read" book may help you with this. ( Teach Your Child To Read : A Phonic Reading Guide for Parents and Teachers is one resource. I haven't read it personally.) The child is learning a challenging new skill. You will need patience. Make it into a game as far as possible (My wife is better than me at this - racing to see who can get the word first - but daughter usually wins!) and keep it light hearted. It is important that it is fun. I am finding that one read of a book is insufficient. The books are challenging on first view. Book 3 was definitely a struggle, but on revisiting book 1, my daughter read it from end to end with barely any help. The joy on her face when she finished - to appropriate cheers from mum & dad - was a sight to remember! If your child is not ready, put the books away for a few months. Reading skills reap their full reward when it is fun. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 64,991 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 136 in Reading Skills Reference 285 in Children's Early Learning Books on the Alphabet 298 in English Literacy | | Customer reviews | 4.8 4.8 out of 5 stars (21,694) | | Dimensions | 14.22 x 4.32 x 14.48 cm | | Edition | 1st | | Grade level | Pre-school and up | | ISBN-10 | 0439845009 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0439845007 | | Item weight | 1.05 kg | | Language | English | | Print length | 144 pages | | Publication date | 3 Oct. 2019 | | Publisher | Scholastic | | Reading age | 3 - 4 years, from customers | ## Images ![Bob Books - Set 1: Beginning Readers Box Set Phonics, Ages 4 and Up, Kindergarten (Stage 1: Starting to Read): 01 - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81fzRCr2D-L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great first reading ever books *by I***A on 10 December 2025* Had to wait a good month for delivery and even paid the import taxes so not super pleased with the delivery.

These are fairly cheap and tacky but we’re after quantity not quality. Now he’s developed enough to be reading the doctor Seuss books but these were a great little cheap and cheerful stepping stone to build his confidence and now his little brother can use them while he’s learning too. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bob Books - Set 1: Beginning Readers Box Set | Phonics, Ages 4 and up, Kindergarten (Stage 1: Starting to Read) - Learn to Read Activity Book: 101 Fun Phonics Lessons to Teach Your Child to Read (Phonics Makes Readers) - First Little Readers Parent Pack: Guided Reading Level A: 25 Irresistible Books That Are Just the Right Level for Beginning Readers --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/47908909-bob-books-set-1-beginning-readers-box-set-phonics-ages](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/47908909-bob-books-set-1-beginning-readers-box-set-phonics-ages) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
