Parent and child follow five simple steps: find the rhyming words, find the sounds, blend the sounds, split the word into sounds, and read the word. Superphonics offers swift progress because of its highly focused approach. With just 20 minutes' work a day, most children will complete Book 3 in 1-2 weeks. It is illustrated in colour throughout by Chris O'Neill.
