Gathered in durable, fold-out cases with handy magnetic closing strips, the interactive collections in this series—each of which includes four mini books and CD-ROMs—examine diverse and engaging subjects, all while developing literacy skills in young readers. Corresponding directly to the learning process, the sets gradually increase their word counts as young ones gain reading confidence. The unique CD-ROMs further enhance the experience by allowing readers to bring pages to life with a single click that pronounces key words. Ideal for encouraging struggling readers to make word-picture associations, the guides also include glossaries and discussion questions for parents and teachers.
