Miracle Worker:
Over two years ago "Maria" was stricken with bacterial meningitis. A college scholar, musician, and artist could no longer read or write. After having worked with her for five or six months just trying hit and miss methods, I purchased "Teach Your Child To Read In 100 Easy Lessons."
It was clear, simple to use, and easily adaptable to my particular need. Maria now reads at the fourth or fifth grade level, still struggling with the aftermath of her disease, but she is confident and happy that she can... more info
Worked for us:
I started this book when my twins turned 5. One of my twins tends to learn a bit quicker than the other, so I decided to have an individual lesson with each of them. The lessons do start off with very simple to teach and learn concepts. Initially the lessons do indeed only take 10-5 minutes each. We are currently on lesson #86 and starting at around #60 or so, the lessons begin to take longer. The stories get longer and more difficult to read. I would guesstimate they take about 25 minutes each and I am not... more info
An Amazing Find!:
This book was recomended to me awhile ago but I forgot about it. While browsing on Amazon one day I saw it and decided to check it out. After reading all the wonderful reviews I knew I had to get it.

Not only does my son love his "reading game" time, he begs me to do it every day and proudly shows his Daddy all that he has been learning.... more info
Great Investment! If you are thinking about it....go ahead and buy it you WILL be GLAD you did!:
My 4 1/2 year old daughter is on lesson 86 of 100. She's doing great. Her big brother, who is almost 7, completed this program by his 5th birthday. He's reading on a 4th grade level and excels with reading. What's so wonderful is I bought 1 book. That's it. I spent maybe $20 a few years ago and by the middle of next month I will have completed the program on 2 children. So, for $10/child I have (with the help of this book, prayer, and patience) taught my children to read! Nothing fancy. Simple reading. Buy... more info
