Product Description
Synopsis
This is the complete book for introducing the 42 letter sounds to 3-4 year old children. For many families and pre-schools, this will become the definitive ABC book, with the advantage of being phonic, so showing all the letter sounds, not just the alphabet. Each double page spread has a letter sound with a story involving the Jolly Phonics characters of Inky, Snake and Bee. A large letter is embossed on each spread so the formation can be felt by little fingers, together with a number of words for reading and spelling and the Jolly Phonics actions.

Format:Hardcover
I bought this along with the Phonics Handbook to help my daughter learn to read. We live in Brasil so she attends school in Portugese and at 6 was struggling with reading because she was confusing the English sounds with Portugese ones. This whole scheme is fantastic I cannot believe how quickly it has improved her reading and writing. This book is an excellent addition as it is divided into 6 seperate stories, each story introduces a different sound per page in the same order as the Phonics Handbook so you can read a page then do the photocopy sheet that matches the story exactly from the Handbook, my daughter really looks forward to seeing what will happen next in the story and what sound it will introduce. All the other things the earlier reviewers say are also 100% accurate, i.e. fantastic illustrations, sturdy quality etc, but buy it with the Handbook or if your child is doing Jolly Phonics at school and you will get so much more out of it.

Format:Hardcover
This is a lovely book, sturdy pages, colourful and several activities on each page as well as the story relating to the letter sounds. This includes a raised letter for the child to 'trace' over with their finger. We have a Jolly phonics video and the letters in the book follow the same pattern. My 3 1/2 year old loves this book! Would recommend as an introduction to phonics

Format:Hardcover
I bought this book for my daughter, and it is cheeper on-line than in ELC. It covers all the letters in the same order that our school does (as they are following the jolly phonics method) There are raised etched letters on each page for the child to run their fingers over and it also shows the correct direction which will help them later on when writing the letter. It tells the parents what the action for each letter, and there are some simple words that you can sound out with your kids and they are asked to look out for them in the story. It is nicely illustrated and my daughter enjoys reading it with and without me, so a big thumbs up on both counts. Enjoy

Helps to bring phonics-learning to life.
Looking at the detail on the pages also helps observation skills.
Would recommend it as a good adjunct to the workbooks.
