The Circus Mice is an educational story. It focuses on words with i-e in them like mice, five and kite. The story starts on page 6 with the pages before containing all the phonics info. In that way I would say the book is designed for teachers. The story of the five mice at the circus is ok, and the drawings are good and in full colour. The story is short though.
It is clearly designed for you to buy the whole 48 book series (this book is level 4 book E) although I couldn't find the series as a whole listed on Amazon. Also some of the other books in the series aren't as good as this and you probably you can find a better series out there for teaching children to read than this.
Bad Zombie Movie is an educational story. It focuses on words with ie in them like zombie, movie and field. The story starts on page 6 with the pages before containing all the phonics info. In that way I would say the book is designed for teachers. The story of the bad zombie movie isn't really a story at all because it doesn't have an ending. The story is short and because it is a phonics book it uses words like heifer instead of cow, which is not a word that kids use. The drawings are good though and in full colour.
It is clearly designed for you to buy the whole 48 book series (this book is level 6 book G) although I couldn't find the series as a whole listed on Amazon. Probably you can find a better series out there for teaching children to read than this.
