Publisher's Description of Bob Books: Beginning Phonics Flashcards (Stage 1: Starting to Read)
These colorful flashcards are the perfect companion to the Bob Books Stage 1 box sets, but can be enjoyed by any child who is just beginning to read. All words in the set are three-letter words with short vowels.
