Early exposure is the best path to lifelong learning, because a little child has a mind like a sponge- it soaks up knowledge at a frantic pace. That is why this pair of workbooks is the perfect introduction to English. Progressing logically from alphabet based exercises to word picture combinations and beyond, the workbooks invoke progressively greater degrees of effort on the child's part. But thanks to the well designed exercises, the child copes effortlessly with higher levels of instruction. No one should really ask more of a workbook but this set, richly loaded as it is with value additions, imparts true learning besides making the child's journey an absorbing and rewarding experience.
