This is the best learning to read app I have found for absolute beginner readers. As I did with my oldest son (and with success - he was able to read fluently prior to starting school) I am endeavouring to teach my soon-to-be 5 year old son to read. This app uses only the most basic words: if your child knows the complete phonetic version of the alphabet, he/she should be able to decipher all of the words by his/herself. The words are combined into short sentences which together with the cute animations, creates an engaging learning opportunity. Most importantly, this is a tool which allows children to put into practice their phonetic knowledge of the alphabet - to decipher the "code" that is each letter - without complication, to allow children to put the pieces together and actually "read" at the most basic level. Highly recommended.
