Summary

My First Phonics Reading Library from Usborne is a fantastic introduction to the broader world of reading. These books use simple rhyming language and essential vocabulary to help kids learn how the sounds they make relate to the words on the page. Every volume in this twenty book collection is fully illustrated, with fourteen by David Semple and six by Fred Blunt. Kids will love their charming styles and vibrant use of colour, and their love will make them want to learn. 

Among the many funny stories are Underpants for Ants, where a mouse has to knit underwear for the chilly ants. There’s also Spider in a Glider, where the intelligent arachnid inventor has to turn her many hands to heroism. And who could forget Seal at the Wheel, where a speeding seal learns the hard way about careful driving. All these unforgettable tales and more are included in this set. The stories are written by Russell Punter, Lesley Simms, and Mairi Mackinnon with care and humour.

Children will love exploring these stories that will help them learn how words work together in sentences. They'll be able to build their vocabulary while learning about animals, colours, shapes and more. Your child will love each story as they learn in an engaging manner that keeps them entertained throughout the entire book. This collection is perfect for parents who want their kids to grow up loving books as much as they do. And it's never too early to start building those lifelong skills!

Usborne has been a trusted publisher of children’s books for nearly fifty years. They collaborate with literacy experts to make sure their books follow the latest educational guidance. My First Phonics Reading Library brings together twenty stories in a great value collection, the perfect kickstart to any child’s reading career.

Specially designed to develop essential language and early reading, each entertaining story has simple rhyming text and stylish illustrations throughout. Containing 20 Phonics Readers favourites, My First Phonics Reading Library is a wonderful way of introducing little ones to this ever-popular series.

Cow Takes a Bow
When Brown Cow visits the circus, she puts on a surprise performance. She slips, trips, drops things and loses her hat - but the ringmaster is thrilled!

Snail Brings the Mail
Hooray for snail! He brings the mail... but he’s ever so slow! A hilarious story fun to share aloud together, or for children to tackle on their own. Reliable snail never fails to deliver the mail, but can he make it on time?

Bee Makes Tea
Bee makes tea for Queen Bee’s birthday.

Underpants for Ants
The ants are feeling a bit chilly – can Mouse help with her knitting skills?

Croc Gets a Shock
Croc is late for everything, even her own birthday party! She sleeps through her alarm, misses the bus, and what's worse, she has the hiccups. A surprise birthday present may be just what she needs...

Crow in the Snow
Crow picks up sticks, some stones and cones… And look- a crow made out of snow.

Spider in a Glider
Spider wishes she could fly, so she builds her very own glider. But when danger strikes, can Spider save the day?

Seal at the Wheel
Seal loves her new speed boat, but she keeps going too fast! Can she learn to be more careful?

Ape's Great Escape
Ape’s in chains for stealing grapes. He has a cunning scheme to escape, but will the prison guards catch him?

Chimp with a Limp
Cheeky Chimp has a limp…or does he? Follow his extremely tall tale as he explains why he cannot possibly help Cheetah.

Hyena Ballerina
Hyena longs to become a ballerina, but will her dreams come true?

Giraffe in the Bath
Giraffe is all set for a soak in the tub after a hard day’s work – but no one will leave her in peace!

Goat in a Boat
Goat rows his boat around the moat. He sits and gazes at his float. It sinks. He blinks. “A fish!” he thinks.

Bug in a Rug
A funny picture book featuring a madcap story about a bug who just wants to get snug in his rug, which uses phonic repetition to help children learn to read.

Kangaroo at the Zoo
What a hullabaloo, someone new at the zoo! How do you do? I’m a kangaroo!

Mole in a Hole
Hay Mole! Rabbit Shouts. “you’re digging my carrots. They’re all popping out!”

Lizard in a Blizzard
Lizard has decided to make a snow machine. The trouble is, once it starts to snow, he can’t make it stop...

Flamingo plays Bingo
Flamingo can’t wait to play jungle bingo! But who will be crowned winner?

Raccoon on the Moon
“Goodbye!” cries Raccoon, “I’m off to the moon. I’ll be back by lunchtime, or late afternoon.” Goose grins and she giggles. “You foolish Raccoon!”

Llamas in Pyjamas
Sam, Ali and Charlie all yell with delight, there’s a creepy sleepover at Frankie’s tonight! They pick out pyjamas with stripes, spots and dots, with their packs on their backs off to Frankie’s they trot.
