Started poorly with rhyming cloth and off, then fine and climb. Ended better. I wish people could actually rhyme properly.

I am 6 years old and just read Adder Up a Ladder. It is a good book because she starts off scared but gets rid of her fears. It's not hard to read but some words are difficult. I also like the pictures in this book.
