Editorial Review:
Product Description:
A collection of stories, poems, and non-fiction for beginning readers, by such authors as Dr. Seuss, Else Minarik, and Arnold Lobel.
Amazon.com Review:
If Ready...Set...Read! were a movie, it would surely be a box-office hit with its all-star cast, including Little Bear, Morris the Moose, and Frog and Toad. This rich treasury of children's favorite stories, as well as poems, riddles, tongue-twisters, and hidden picture games, will delight and inspire every beginning reader. There's something for everyone in this diverse collection: Have a young poet in the house? How about a poem by Gwendolyn Brooks or Robert Louis Stevenson? Let the budding scientist discover "Our Earth in Space." The amateur comedian might pick up a few tips from the knock-knock jokes and riddles. And be prepared to untie some messy knots after the tongue-twister section: "Wendy went to rent one red room."
Ready...Set...Read! is a perfect introduction to many well-loved authors and illustrators, including Maurice Sendak, Else Holmelund Minarik, and Russell Hoban. Most importantly, this all-in-one collection, with its easy-to-read type, simple vocabulary, and variety of lively and colorful illustrations, will provide a jump-start to reading that will soon have children racing to the bookshelf for more.

Very nice book. My six year old loves it and reads it to me and I enjoy reading from the book too. The stories are fun and informative and make reading a joy.

I'm always fascinated by what people (apparently even educators) think of as a beginning reader. I think of a true beginner as one who is still sounding out and occasionally stumbling over simple words like: sat, is, and gives. A true beginner in my book also tires easily if there is too much text per page.
If this description fits your beginning reader, then I don't think this is the primer for you. The book is great --we really like it --but it's not a collection that a true beginner ... Read More

Though the stories, jokes, and poems in this book are quite good, there is no way they are age appropriate for the older children in the 4-8 group where they are placed. I bought this for my 6 year old based on another review that said how wonderful this book was...I was disappointed. It is more appropriate for my 1 year old. There is little text in the book per page and the illustrations are ordinary rather than exceptional. If you want funny jokes and poems, try the Grin and Giggle Book, and if you ... Read More

I love this book! Both my kids (now 15 and 11) loved this book, so much so that we can't pass it on to my niece because it has such sentimental value. I guess I'm now saving it for grand kids (scary thought). Anyway, it truly is perfect for emerging readers with varying reading levels and most importantly varying subject matters. I'm ordering one now for my niece and I know she will treasure her copy as much as we do ours.
