He can identify with your books and because of the simple text he has started to read fluently. It is really nice when he looks you in the eyes and discusses the book. Please keep writing them as we have just about got through the whole series so far...

I have purchased all of the 'Billie B Brown' and Hey Jack!' books that are available. They have been a huge hit with the early readers. Some students who are reluctant / lower ability readers are 'hooked' and are desperate for more! I look forward to purchasing the upcoming books to add to our collection.

Thank you for providing us with such fantastic books which are challenging and fun for an early reader, and so much better than those aweful home readers we get at school! I had no idea you also write the Billie B Brown series, or that the two are related. My daughter loves Billie, as do her friends. Keep writing brilliant books for kids, all the mums out there appreciate the work you are doing.Kymmyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14516674106541261342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3989868046530861811.post-9309114127017434722012-02-25T13:07:07.455+11:002012-02-25T13:07:07.455+11:00Hi there Anonymous,
