	Success	Nov 6, 2009	Amy Osborn	CA US
	I was worried that my 13 yr old dyslexic son would not like the book...but there is nothing like success! He is so enthusiastic because he knows these words and the feeling of success is so rare for him. We are eagerly awaiting future readers!
	Not so good for older Kids	Sep 15, 2009	anonymous	US
	I really like this book. I tutor 1st-7th graders and the 1st-2nd grade love it, 3rd-4th say its okay, my 5th and up do not care for it at all.
	A New Classic!	Apr 29, 2009	Tina Burnell	KY US
	The Beehive Reader is an absolutely beautiful book that takes beginning reading up a notch by giving even the newest readers the successful feeling of being able to read a "big" book! The stories offer superb reading practice, the illustrations are delightfully gorgeous and offer visual appeal to all ages, and the design of the book from the hardcover to the feel of the pages, give it classic quality and appeal! Can't wait for more!
	It's beautiful!	Apr 8, 2009	Nicole	Ma US
	While I haven't used it with my kids yet, I read the Beehive Reader cover to cover myself and I love how it flows right with Level 1. I must add also that the pictures are absolutely beautiful. Thanks Marie, for another great product!
	An answer to prayer	Apr 3, 2009	Karen Sunderland	US
	I've been looking for books that correlate with AAS Level 1 for my beginning readers (8 year old and younger siblings). It never occurred to me that you might actually write a book that would fit our needs! It's an answer to prayer. We received our Beehive Reader yesterday and my daughter can't put it down! She's in love! It's better than we hoped... Just perfect!
	12-year-old approved!	Mar 30, 2009	Merry Marinello	IL US
	Today my 12 yo son asked if he could read our new Beehive Reader 1. Granted, he was waiting to use the computer--but he read the whole thing! About page 70 (he stopped to let me know what page he was on), he said, "This is really nice, parents are really going to like this for their kids. It's a good book to snuggle with. And it's a lot better than what I had to learn to read with!" His favorite story was the Ten Wishes. He would like me to submit his request that you continue to produce readers, and one for his level soon, please!
	A book you WANT to read!	Mar 30, 2009	Linda Rose	US
	One thing that I like about the reader is that the stories actually make sense. In so many beginning readers, the stories are quite preposterous. These stories just make sense and the text is not overwhelming or like reading a text book at all--it's more like snuggling up with your favorite book and reading because you want to, not because you have to!
	Lovely, a great value!	Mar 30, 2009	Deborah	US
	I love that there are not too many words on a page and that every page is charmingly illustrated. The stories are nice too. The children act like children and not jaded sophisticates or brats. The animals are cute without being overly anthropomorphized. The book has a nice, solid feel and could easily be a present. I am impressed that you managed to produce a heavily illustrated book with a quality binding that is not a mass market item for a reasonable price.
	Breathtakingly Beautiful!	Mar 30, 2009	Ann Voskamp	ON CA
	I just wanted to give you a STANDING OVATION for a job well done.
	Best in its class!	Mar 30, 2009	Cynthia Westin	AZ US
	I got my book today and had to come here to say how excited I am about it. This reader is far beyond any other reader I've ever seen. This book is "gift quality," really. Wonderful short stories with just the right number of words and incredible illustrations. Thank you!
	So Thankful!	Mar 30, 2009	Beth S.	NC US
	What a blessing it is to have the Beehive Reader to practice reading the words we're learning in All About Spelling. This book is very attractively, uniquely designed and has nice illustrations. Since I'm using this with a dyslexic ten-year-old, I appreciate that it isn't "babyish" and that it is completely decodable. Mrs. Rippel did an excellent job creating interesting stories with a limited selection of words. My son was thrilled to receive this in the mail (it only took two days) and immediately started reading it aloud to us. Hope that a reader for level two will come out soon. THANK YOU!
	Delightful!	Mar 29, 2009	Cindy P.	IL US
	This is really the most gorgeous reader I've ever seen! There is a lot to like about this book: The stories have natural sentence structure and are very interesting. The font is nice and simple. Lots of care was taken with the illustrations, and they will appeal to all ages, IMHO. I'm still deciding which story is my favorite because I like them all! I can't wait to read this book with a child. (I'm a tutor, and that is my favorite part of being a tutor!). Truly a delightful book. Thank you, Marie!
	Wonderful	Mar 28, 2009	Martha P.	Te US
	I just ordered this book and it came in the mail within a few days. Awesome! Then I opened it up and the book is wonderful inside and out. Cute, nice, clean stories with picture in almost ever page. I sure do hope this is not the last of the series.
	Absolutely Beautiful Book!	Mar 24, 2009	Nancy K.	WI US
	Wow! That was my first reaction when I opened this book. The story lines are very nice, the characters are charming, and the illustrations are incredible. Even the feel of the book is a step above the norm.
