My 5 year old daughter is trying to read and this book is made just for beginners by repeating words to get use to. It's a good book!

Brand new. Great book, perfect shape. Good for my money.
Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2014
These books are great for very early readers with only a few words on each page. I wish there was a series in between these books and the Henry and Mudge books.

My son learned to read using this series. LOVE the Mudge series.

I've used different sets of books in helping my now 5-year-old daughter learn to read. This series "Puppy Mudge" was one of the early books that we used back when she was four and which we still use for practice. The books in this Ready-To-Read series are categorized into 4 levels:
Pre-Level 1 - Recognizing Words
Level 1 - Starting to Read
Level 2 - Reading Independently
Level 3 - Reading Proficiently

At 5, my daughter is currently at Level 1. In these pre-level 1 books, children who are starting to show an interest in reading will find the story of Puppy Mudge (and a rather large puppy he is too!) interesting and engaging, though perhaps not as adorable as Biscuit (created by Alyssa Satin Capucilli). Mudge gets into all sorts of scrapes and the stories rely on certain key words being repeated throughout the story. Here the words are "snack" and "cute". These books are suited for children ages 4-6. I would also recommend the Biscuit books, i.e. 
Biscuit's New Trick (My First I Can Read) , Biscuit Wants to Play (My First I Can Read) , Bathtime for Biscuit (My First I Can Read) .

My oldest who is 6 is struggling with reading. At first, he still struggled but we have it for awhile so we'll keep practicing it.

I liked it cause it kept repeating things so maybe he'd gain some confidence. Repetition seems to be a good key to learning how to read. I read it myself and found it very simple.

After a little frustration, he even started to giggle. I definitely am glad I picked this one up for him.
