Right at the beginning, when you're just starting to read books which have more words than pictures, you need a book that's structured to help you. You need a book which is comfy to hold in small hands and which has a firm cover so that everything keeps ''straight''. You need to share the reading and to know which words you're going to read and you might perhaps appreciate a ''hint'' in the form of a picture which will help you to get the word all on your own. Most of all though, you need to have a proper story and a feeling that you've achieved something when you get to the end. You need Ant and Bee.
It's a small book - about the size of a wallet, but it has 110 pages. Words which the new reader is going to say are picked out in red. Most of them are three or four letters long. The five-letter words have a page to themselves - and on the opposite page , there's a picture. All the five-letter words are in alphabetical order from A to Z although ''X WORD'' is just a little bit of a cop -out! Best of all though - there's a real adventure in this book, quite a lot of fun and any young reader is going to feel proud of themselves when they get to the end.
''More and More Ant and Bee'' is the third in this series of books, but there's no need to feel that they should be read in order. They were originally published in the sixties and seventies and intended for pre-school children. They've stood the test of time and many's the adult who now looks back on them as the start of their reading.
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to the Bookbag.
For more alphabet fun we can recommend [[Kipper's A To Z by Mick Inkpen]]. You'll also find [[Ant and Bee and Kind Dog by Angela Banner]] useful.
