Fun and good for teaching children to read and enjoy playing with language

I remember my mother ordering these when my sister and I were little. She wasn't aware that a new book (or books) would be coming every month. They drove her crazy.

But they make language fun for children, if at times confusing.

Wonderful books for both children and adults. I read them as a kid and enjoyed reading them to my son.
