Let's Build Something: A Story Book/Coloring Book/Workbook

by Barbara Campbell

This short book fills an important niche in simplifying early-stage reading. Although there are thousands of words, there are just over 100 words that include all the important sounds in the English language. When individuals learn them, they are able to sound out words and make the connection between what they have heard and the sounds of the letter grouping. They sound out the letter groupings and then begin to recognize whole words with practice. For such people, reading is a visual blizzard of unconnected symbols, which this simple approach clarifies. The book Let s Build Something presents just over 100 words in an entertaining way so that the inexperienced reader can learn the phonic key to the English language in a few weeks. Readers are then equipped to read what they want and will read independently. The book offers a shortcut through the confusion in the early stages of reading.
