My son is learning how to read! Pros: My son goes to a Waldorf school so they focus on learning to read a bit later than traditional schools (slow to go fast). My son seemed interested in reading so I decided to purchase this after seeing the Facebook ad and reading lots of positive reviews. He already knew his alphabet and basic words, so I haven’t used all of the material presented. He LOVES picking the next book and reading each night. Usually he reads a new book, then the last two books in the series. That way he reads each book at least 2-3 times. Cons: Shipping took forever!
