Review
Children ages 6 and up can teach themselves to read with a self-paced, kid-friendly program that has twelve entertaining stories that employ fun characters and build in sequence from the simple to the more complex. Kids have time to read each screen before hearing a voice read the highlighted words. In addition to community library children's multi-media collections, these titles (Alphabet Circus Video, Nursery Rhymes Video, Getting Ready for Kindergarten Video, and Phonics Easy Readers on DVD) are very highly recommended supplements for preschool, daycare, home schooling, and traditional curriculums. --Children's Bookwatch, September 2005

Review
My students responded well to the pacing of the stories. So many read-along programs go too fast. Not this one. Thanks for a great way to let students practice on their own --Jan B., remedial reading teacher

Customer Reviews

It's OK but not great like the other Rock N Learn videos...
Both my 3 yr old & 4 yr old children love the Rock N Learn videos, but they got bored with this one much faster. It doesn't have the singing and action like the other videos. This video mainly consists of still pictures while the narrator reads the highlighted words.

Good reinforcer
The reason that this video doesn't have the singing and action like the other videos is because the focus is on learning how to read the text. It is geared for children who are learning how to read. I feel that it's a great reinforcement. However, nothing can replace the interaction between an adult and a child that takes place during the reading process.

It is just OK.
We own other Rock N' Roll products, which are great, like "Colors, Shapes and Counting", "Alphabet" and "Phonics". My son is 21 months old, and he is beginning to read!!! This particular DVD has many stories that are rather short and a parent needs to click to start each story. This frequent parent intervention is not taken favorably by a parent looking for some break.
