Easy to use by young children

It is a very easy book for young children to use, especially for those familiar with the characters of the Jolly Phonics series. the layout and colour coded pages help a lot. The meanings to words are very easy and clear for children to grasp. My few disappointments with the are the spelling is for American English whereas I needed a British version for the where I reside we use standard British spelling and I think it should have more words, cannot give examples now but when my daughter asked about some simple words it wasn't in dictionary. My child is almost seven years and is quite happy to be able to use a dictionary. Dictionary was bought for personal use for when she's reading story books and not as an aide for the classroom. So we don't mind, it is easy enough for me to correct her school work spelling. Even though the book was listed as used it was in excellent condition, almost new, if I didn't see the school library stamp I would not have known the book was a used item.

Must buy for older jolly phonics students

My 3rd grader has been on jolly phonics since preschool. I love the jolly phonics program. The only issue is we are working on finding words in the dictionary and I have three different children dictionary's and A lot of words weren't in them(words that should be in a dictionary) This is a must buy. Every word in the jolly phonics program is in it and it saves a lot of time of frustration.
