The ultimate choice for Christmas gifting to spread festive cheer. Summary If you’re just beginning to take the reading journey with your child, My First Reading Library is a great first step. It’s a great collection from Usborne, trusted publishers of children’s books. There are fifty books included in this substantial box set, covering the first three stages of reading development. They will take you from the phonics they’re learning in schools, through short stories they can read by themselves, right up to longer stories that will help build confidence in their new skills. The box also comes with a QR code, which links to a parents’ guide online. This collection is part of the Usborne Reading Programme, which can be used in concert with your child’s school curriculum or as a foundation for homeschooling. The complete programme encompasses three series: Very First Reading, First Reading and Young Reading. Both First and Young Reading have four levels each, and Very First Reading is one level, bringing it to a total of nine. This box set, by renowned children’s book publishers Usborne, features the first three levels of reading, making the perfect start. What comes next? This box set is just the first step in your child’s reading journey. Once they’ve completed My First Reading Library, they’re ready to move onto Usborne’s My Reading Library. It’s the perfect follow-up because it picks up the Usborne Reading Programme from right where the first box set leaves off. My Reading Library features 14 books from Usborne First Reading Level Three, 16 books from Usborne First Reading Level Four, and 20 books from Usborne Young Reading Series One.
