Description:

Readers at this level are able to tackle longer sentences and longer books but still love the accomplishment of reading a book all the way through. Bob Books: Set 4 Complex Words continues with our incremental introduction of phonics and sight words. With careful pacing, we introduce more blends, more sight words and longer words.

Even though stories are longer, the simple narrative and design help children focus their skills on decoding and sight words. The delightful illustrations and humor help keep young readers engaged with the more challenging material.

Inside the box you'll find:

  • 8 easy-to-read books, 16-24 pages each
  • Many four and five letter words (one syllable).
  • Many consonant blends (such as nd, sn, st, ck)
  • A few vowel combinations (such as ou, ee, oo)
  • Up to 150 words per book

About Bob Books

Bob Books is a true first reader series, designed to make helping children learn to read simple and straightforward. The clean layout, short words, and simple phonics make learning to read a fun and natural step for a child that knows the alphabet. Companion workbooks extend children's reading journey by allowing them to practice the skills learned in the books.

Bob Books is designed to give young children the tools to cross from learning letters to reading words. The award-winning beginning reader book sets start slowly and progress from books with three letter words, to books with more than one sentence per page. By meeting children at the right level, parents are often amazed at how quickly their child is able to sound out words when reading their first Bob Book.

Bob Books covers four reading stages...

  • Reading Readiness (Pre-Readings): Skills Recognize shapes, patterns, and other pre-reading skills
  • Stage 1: Starting to Read From learning the alphabet to sounding out your first words
  • Stage 2: Emerging Readers Sentences become longer and sight words are introduced
  • Stage 3: Developing Readers Words and sentences become longer, and new rules are introduced
