Really helped them learn how to read. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Good books *by I***A on 29 July 2026* A good set of beginning reader type books but I prefer the read write inc set as it has a more systematic approach in helping kids (3-4 yo) with reading by phonics. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Teaching a kid English while living abroad? You HAVE to have this. *by F***. on 30 September 2021* I'm an American with a Japanese life and my 7 year old son was born and raised here in Japan. I've bought a lot of English study materials, and the Bob Book series has been uniformly excellent in every way. 100% recommend. Note that my kid at least wasn't self-directed enough to study by himself, except a few days he sat down to read the Bob Books. Instead, we had a mini "English Class" about an hour a day and worked through this material. ## Frequently Bought Together - Bob Books Set 4 - Complex Words - Bob Books Set 3- Word Families - Bob Books: Sight Words, 1st Grade --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/253588220-bob-books-complex-words-box-set-phonics-ages-4-up](https://www.desertcart.at/products/253588220-bob-books-complex-words-box-set-phonics-ages-4-up) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-11-06*
