A New York Times bestseller A 2010 Parents' Choice Silver Award An Autumn 2010 Children's Indie Next Pick Review, CHICAGO SUN-TIMES, September 12, 2010: "A perfect picture book for kids 3-7." Review, THE BOSTON GLOBE, October 3, 2010: "A picture book all about the joys of reading could easily turn preachy and dull. But "How Rocket Learned to Read'' defies gravity. Rocket is lovable, the little feathered teacher adorable. Hills tells his sprightly story as needed, not one word more or less. His pictures flow with soft color and movement. Hills makes this a story of friendship. It may persuade tentative kindergarteners that school is worth a try; teachers and librarians will love it." Review, KIRKUS REVIEWS, June 15, 2010: "Hills's gentle, sweet tale is a paean to the joy of reading and the teachers that inspire it." Review, PUBLISHERS WEEKLY, June 14, 2010: "With characters as memorable as those in Hills's Duck and Goose series, this good-natured story shows readers how Rocket, a spotted puppy, becomes a beginning reader, thanks to a little yellow bird." Review, SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL, July 2010: "Youngsters will find this addition to Hills's cast of adorable animal characters simply irresistible."

Beyond great price. The media itself (CDs) were in NM (near mint) condition. Packaging was in fair condition, so stating Good in the description was reasonable if not downplaying the media itself. Nothing to complain about. Shipping was free and arrived exactly a week later (5 business days). Would definitely recommend and do business with seller again! A++

SecondSalecom is one of my go to sellers, because they have a large selection and I can usually find the book or movie that I want from them at a low price if not the lowest price on eBay. Also, when I buy three books/movies I get a fourth book/movie free. Shipping is also free. This was a great transaction. The DVD was packaged well, shipped promptly and is just as described. I will be back to buy again. Thank you!!

  • Charming book

    We love reading this charming book that has great vocab you Larry words for a young reader. It can be a little bit challenging and have a couple of pages just a vocabulary word which makes the content fun for kids.

  • Interesting kid's book

    This is a nice little book about a dog that wants to learn to read. It stresses the importance of repetition when you learn to read.
