Title: The New Guess Who

Type: Realistic Fiction
Summary: This is a great and easy book, it talks about the things Dick, Jane and Sally do. It talks about the adventures of their day and how they are helping each other out.

This is a great book for kids learning to read. It is an older book, I also got it form my mom. The illustrations are very unique and colorful.… (more)

What I'd really like to know is how many people started reading with these at school???? In hindsight I find it ironic we were using these repetitive & simple books and at the same time being taught to write copperplate with nibs and ink.
I wish I could find an original cover picture which was a green cover, but have found an inside page illustration and another of the series original covers "Look and See". (click under the image - 2 more photos) to see them.

You can see most of the covers for the Dick and Jane series here;

It's a shame my copies were thrown out a few years back. ;( Going by the prices on the above site, they are worth collecting.

This book is an excellent book to teach children to read, however because it is old, it is not very racially diverse. These types of books tend not to be, however the sentence structure and word choices are great for new readers. I would recommend this book for Kidergarden and 1st grade teachers to keep in their in-class libraries!

This is a reader, great for home schooling. I'd say it's about 3rd grade level. It contains these Units with these stories:UNIT A - Marvelous Machines {{The Little Red Computer by Ralph Steadman ~The Secret of the Shed by Anthony Maitland ~Way Down Deep by Mary Ann Hoberman ~Bathtubs Are for Racing}}UNIT B - In the Present, In the Past {{The Hopi Way by Mary Elting ~How Coyote Guarded the Corn by Grace Jackson Penney ~Tyee's Totem Pole by Terry Shannon}}UNIT C - D-O-G Spells Fun {{Ramona and Ribsy by Beverly Cleary ~The Gingham Dog and the Calico Cat by Eugene Field ~A New Puppy ~Is it Realistic or Informational?}}Unit D - By Sandy Shores {{Bernadine and the Water Bucket by Aileen Olsen ~Fun with Sand by Bernice Kohn ~How to Make a Sand Painting}}… (more)
