About this book

A child learning to read for himself needs stories that match his level of skill and capture his interest. The Starting Line series meets this challenge. All children learning to read will benefit from these books. Moreover, the words in The Starting Line parallel the sequence of phonics skills presented in Bob Jones University Press curriculum materials K5 Beginnings for Christian Schools and Reading 1 for Christian Schools. This book is designed to be used: anytime after lesson 65 in K5 Beginnings for Christian Schools to supply additional experience for the eager reader; anytime after Lesson 15 in Reader 1 for Christian Schools to provide a confidence builder early in the year. Please check inside the back cover for help in guiding a thoughtful reading of this story. Keep the reading time light and enjoyable, both for your benefit and for the children you influence. You want each child to become a fluent, silent reader, one who reads because he enjoys it, reflecting the pleasant, effective time that you and he spent together with books. - Back cover.
