Forget Dick and Jane.
Bob Books are where it's at.
Little Miss: "I will read books to
the baby when he's born."
Dad: "Okay, but you have to learn
your letter sounds to read books."
Little Miss: "Okay."
That innocent conversation took place four months ago when my daughter was 3-years-and-4-months-old. She completed her first book the very same month. My daughter was so proud of herself."
