Alycia Can Read Her Peter And Jane Books!

I just have to put this on record before it slips my mind again. Since yesterday, Alycia has been reading.... reading on her own that is and she's reading the Ladybird Peter and Jane series. She managed to read the entire 1A book yesterday and today.

Today, I took out the Peter and Jane 1B book and she could also read most pages in the book. This time, my mum and I were convinced that she read it through recognition of words and not through memorization. I am just so happy and proud of her achievement.


Can you believe that this book is over 30 years old? It once belonged to Raymond, my elder brother, than me and then my younger brother Roy. Now, my gals are reading it. Awesome!

Never mind about the yellow stains, the book is still in pretty good shape!

Alycia is so clever. You made mummy happy and proud.

Most of the kindy here are using this Ladybird series. Sharlene is currently reading books 1a & 1b too. She can read the words but more of memorizing and looking at the pictures.

My mom just brought over a whole bunch of books yesterday, courtesy of her neighbor. Among the books was a set of Peter and Jane books, as old as yours I think (maybe older). A lot of people like Peter and Jane. But I feel they are very old fashion. Hahahah. And yet they still work.
