Meet Rhino and his friends.
Read with Rhino is a fun series of beginner reading books. It is not a reading scheme, although there is a progression in the difficulty.
The sentences are short, with lots of repetition to build confidence and a focus on words from the First 100 High Frequency list.
Where other words are needed, they are largely ones which can be phonetically decoded, and there are lots of visual clues in the pictures to help beginner readers.
Read with Rhino stories are a fun way to supplement a school reading scheme, or for homeschooling.
Just brilliant! The best early reader I have ever seen! This delightful early reader book is in 3D. The pictures of the children have depth and perspective - it's almost like looking through a window. There is reading advice at the start - and everything is laid out really well. I was goggling at the amazing 3D children. This book is just so worth it in so many ways.
This book is quick and easy for a first time reader who is transitioning from all pictures and one word stories to sentences and illustrations. The little Rhino guide is also a good tool to guide children and help them learn concepts like finding clues and follow the pictures and text to find the answer. The activities at the back were also a great learning tool for parents to help their children learn from the story.
This was a good choice for a four year old learning to read. The repetitive nature of the book allows them to repeat and retain phrases. Other books aimed at this age group sometimes have simple words but not full sentences; others have full sentences but are too long or complex for him. I felt this struck the right balance for a child starting to read.
There are three titles in Level 1
