This phonics-based set helps children become better readers as they are introduced to long vowel sounds and the magical silent e! The illustrated books seamlessly incorporate these new concepts—stimulating readers by opening the door to longer stories and words with more complex spellings, growing their reading vocabularies and preparing them to read chapter books. Set includes 8 mini books in a storage box, plus a guide card; each book is 16-24 pages and measures 5 5/8" x 5 5/8".
