Synopsis

     There comes a time in each child’s life, normally around the age of 3-5, when a child crosses over the bridge from letter recognition to the act of learning how to read- and they do this independently! A whole new web of reading…begins spinning of their very own and this opens many new doors to the child’s life. Reading is fun! If a child is not given ample opportunity to explore the basic building blocks of letters and their sounds (phonetics) then the ability for one to learn how to independently read may be delayed or misunderstood. This may shake the child’s confidence in life. Remember, what you water, grows! This book is a tool to help any child… grow! In a fun, Montessori approach kinda way, from one bug friend to another… 

*How does one begin to expand their knowledge and understand how to read?
*What are the steps they need to take in order to put their phonetics to the test?
How to read on your own.

Let’s help your child move through the process with more ease. It will benefit us all in the long run. You’ll see…

 Here contains the keys:
