Great place to start

I originally checked this book out of the library along with another one. I liked this book much better because of the really easy "games" and projects that Barbara Curtis suggests to start with (we love the sound game). She also tells you how to instill a love for reading beginning with babies. I have a 3 year old who is starting to read a few things (cat, dog) phoenetically, and a 17 month old who I'm trying to read to for at least 45 minutes a day. I will purchase this book and I'm sure it will be a much used resource. She is a devout Christian and has home-schooled most of her children, but she doesn't shove either down your throat. I'd like to read her other book also.
I loved this book and so did my 4 year old..........

"Ready,Set,Read!"is a wonderful book on how young children learn language.I love the fact that she focused on the parent-child relationship at the center of learning.My son is starting to read now at age 4.5.But, she is clear that not all children will learn to read that young.I also enjoyed the many titles she reccomends. We have many more Favorites in our book collection.
Who needs bells and whistles?

The principles of introducing reading that the author gives are truly things that any parent can do. The author has a background in Montessori method, but the book is entirely geared toward the home situation. It's essentially a good solid introduction to phonic awareness and instruction. Her ideas require little expense, and most are intended to be things that you can do with your child even while the parent is doing other things. I bought this book and a more expensive, more structured reading instruction book at the same time, and while I like the other book, I love this one. I wish I had bought only it and read it first. It's very encouraging.
