Perfect early reader for children just learning to read. My 4 year old really enjoys reading all of the phonics books in this series by herself (so far she's read all the level 1 and 2 books). This one in particular made her laugh.

My 5 year old who is beginning to read loved it. She loved the simple, rhyming sentences. I thought the book was good too...

Read and review by Brandon (5): I liked when the bugs bit Bill's hand because he was trying to kill the bugs.
