Bought these in 2017 for $6. I ended up getting rid of them very quickly after the "last straw" when my child requested a particular brand of cheese based upon the appearance of the characters (we had never watched the associated television property, before or after owning these books). Ultimately I prioritized books with limited or no cross-branding. No tie-ins with giant corporate brands, television shows, etc. My local librarian was able to make some recommendations, including some from the comparable Ready to Read from Simon & Schuster.

Otherwise, I'd note that Step into Reading produces fine books outside of this discount box set. If seeing a familiar property helps encourage your child to read then I'd actually encourage you to look at some of the associated Ready to Read book titles. However, besides the small, low-quality of the books in this particular deal, I was also frustrated with one of the feature items highlighted in the photo reviews wherein "Paw Patrol words" are elevated alongside sight words, blends, and the vowel sounds practice words as if they were somehow critical to the purpose of the books.

Overall the selection of phonics readers in the market is amazing. The Usborne phonics series worked well for my little reader (though some buyers may be rightfully turned off by the MLM method used to distribute them here in the U.S.), but there are great reviews online breaking out how different phonics reader series might appeal to different readers. If you shop these like I do, you try one or two out (if possible via the local library) then just commit to a set.

Good luck!

Use cartoon characters to appeal to children?!? Pardon my shock. /s

I have this set and it's not bad for the price. Would recommend.

Are there more than 4 pages per book? A few reviews mentioned it's literally 4 pages with 5 words on each page.

They are very short. I think each is about 5-6 pages with a sentence on each page, though there are 12 of them. It's meant for kids who are *just* starting phonics and reading. I think it's reasonable to give kids at that level a sense of progress/completion if they can get through a whole book. They are organized by sounds, so one of the first few is short "e" (set, get, wet, pet). My daughter doesn't have much patience so we only do one or two at a time. I wouldn't want them to be much longer.

I love Bob books because they follow the right path to learning to read, i.e. CVC words I once bought my son some Superman books like this and they had such big words, like kryptonite, that there was no way to teach reading using them.
I own a preschool with many paw patrol fans but I don't want to buy them for beginning readers if they have words with long vowels, silent e, or other things beginning readers don't know yet.
