Skills for Starting School Ready to Read

A fun, hands-on sticker and activity book for any child who is familiar with letter sounds and is ready to move on to reading simple words, developed in collaboration with educational experts.

Help your preschooler get ready for school with Ready to Read. Featuring more than 80 colorful stickers, this book is filled with hands-on activities to spark a love of reading and boost confidence in learning key literacy skills.

Children will practice their existing phonics knowledge by reading letter sounds, finding missing sound stickers, and blending letter sounds together to read their very first words. Picture clues encourage them to use context in reading, starting with familiar consonant-vowel-consonant words.

Children will love learning to read their first words through play with the funny and friendly cat, monkey, and elephant characters in Ready to Read, part of DK's Skills for Starting School series.

This Level 3 playbook builds on concepts learned in Level 1 Skills for Starting School ABC Games.
