Delightful books for new readers!
I was so excited to discover this delightful series for new readers. So often, books for kids who are starting to read on their own are dull as dishwater.Not CORK AND FUZZ!
Adorable
Cork and Fuzz is a great book for beginning readers.It creates two memorable characters, and subtly teaches about appreciating friends for their differences.My daughter, Meredith, loved it!

Funny Furries Make Fabulous Friends!
I am IN LOVE with Cork & Fuzz. This easy reader series is a favorite in our household. Cleverly written and endearingly illustrated, this pair is destined to take their place among other easy reader favorites. Look out Frog & Toad!! ... Read more

Short and sweet
My 6 years old daughter enjoyed reading the book. She learnt few new words from the book. She identified herself with Lacy in the story.Then, she pondered - how would I take care of a pet if I have one? This inspired her to write a short story about taking care of her future pet ;)

Fabulous Beginner Reader for Horse Lovers
I work with youth in a library and select books for beginning readers.This is a fabulous beginner reader with excellent, telling illustrations that enhance the text with limited text on each page and a nonrigorous vocabulary. Those just beginning to read (and especially those children who love animals) will love to tackle this book and feel a sense of accomplishment when they say, "I just read this book!" ... Read more

Well done easy reader
Some publishers have level one readers then they have a pre-reading and then an emergent reader underneath it, so you never know if a book is an "easy" reader for a first time reader until you pull it off the shelf & look at the wording inside.Rest assured, this is an easy reader that would not threaten a new reader.

Editorial Review

Ages 5 & up. This book for beginning readers is a perfect match between a Newbery award-winning author and a Caldecott award-winning illustrator. Told in the first person, the four short chapters depict a warm, funny relationship between a boy and his sweet but sometimes pesky younger brother. Readers will enjoy the dry humor of the narrative, the likeable characters and the expressive and fanciful illustrations. In a starred review, Read more

My brother antby pluto
My Brother Ant was a good book because it was scary!I love scary books He was crying because he thought there was a moster under his bed. If youwant to know more Read the book.

Manster under my bed
My Brother, Ant
My 6 year old son was roaring with laughter!
What a delight!This book humerously delivers anecdotes of "brotherly love"! As a mother of two boys, I found it very endearing.My oldest son must have been able to relate to Ant's big brother's methods of tender teasing.I've never seen him laugh so hard. Hurray Besty Cromer Byars, we'll be looking for more of your cleverlywritten "brother" stories! ... Read more

Rub-A-Dub Fun
A giant dog named Tiny washes away an afternoon of fun and mud in Tiny's Bath.This level 1 Easy-to-Read book is filled with brightly colored illustrations that capture the playful relationship between a boy and his dog while clearly emphasizing Tiny's enormous size.Although the sentences are occasionally awkward, they rarely contain more than five words and use sight words that are familiar to transitional readers.In addition, some sentences use a repetitive structure to make reading easier and to build confidence.Children will relate to the humorous plot and will eagerly look forward to finding out how the little boy gets his giant dog clean.This crisp, modern book lacks some of the old-fashioned charm of earlier Easy-to-Read books, but the action-filled tale of a loveable dog will be a delight to children who are eager to practice reading independently.

This is sure to become a beginning reader classic.
The illustrations are a delight and there is just enough text to keep "beginning beginners" going.Tiny and his owner have great adult as well as kid appeal. I haven't been this pleased about a book at thislevel in years, and I've seen a great many.(A kindergarten teacher in WAstate.) ... Read more

Adorable New Easy-to-Read Children's Book
Tiny the dog is anything but tiny. In fact, he's huge. One snowy day, Tiny and his owner decide to play outside. They go sledding, have a snowball fight, and Tiny even plays hide-and-seek with his beloved owner. Then, when the cold has chilled their bones, the two friends head inside for a nice mug of warm cocoa.
Helps a child to start reading!
This is the first book that my son has ever tried to read for himself.This book actually made him feel like he could read.He was so proud of himself.I am so impressed with the format of the book that I am going to try other books from the Viking Easy to Read series. ... Read more

The Garden's Review
This book is a good book no matter who you are. This is a great book especially for children because you can tell what is going on just from the pictures, and this helps them understand unknown words better. It also helps the child understand that through work come rewards. This is a great book that you and your child will just want to read over and over again, and the illustrations are very fitting. ...

In Horrible Harry and the Mud Gremlins by Suzy Kline you'll learn to listen to the rules.Harry convinces the class to go to where the teachers can't see them and they get in trouble.How will Harry ever learn to follow the rules?
Horrible Harry review
As an elementary teacher, I have a great love for children's literature.I choose Harry Horrible books frequently in my classroom.I read this book to my students at the beginning of the school year.The adventures of Harry and his friends throughout the Horrible Harry adventures are engaging its readers.These are some of the first chapter books that they pick up.It is a great simple chapter book to help hook your students into reading.They will relate to Harry and his friends, and find that reading is funny.I recommend this book to everyone.

Easy vocabulary, repetition and visual clues accent a fun tale of early problem-solving skills
Level 1 of the Viking Easy-To-Read program offers ages 4-7 a starter on reading, the next step up from the picturebook level. Large-size color drawings by Rich Davis accent the story of Tiny the large dog and his little human best friend, who go camping and face the challenge of setting up a tent too small for them both. Easy vocabulary, repetition and visual clues accent a fun tale of early problem-solving skills.
