Danny and the Dinosaur help kids learn to read with phonics. Learning to read has never been so dino-tastic

Reviewed by a phonics expert, these twelve short full-color books feature examples of short and long vowel sounds and common sight words.

Each of the 12 simple stories in this box set is designed to teach kids how to master reading while having fun with Danny and the Dinosaur.

Phonics teaches children the relationship between letters and the sounds they make. A child who has mastered these relationships has an excellent foundation for learning to read and spell. According to the National Institute of Child Health & Human Development, a child who has learned phonics has a method to recognize familiar words and "decode" unfamiliar ones.
