From New York Times bestselling author and former children's poet laureate Mary Ann Hoberman comes a new collection of fresh read-aloud takes on eight favorite fairy tales, including "The Three Bears," "Cinderella," and "Little Red Riding Hood." Designed with emerging readers in mind, each of the tales is told in short rhyming dialogues—with each character's lines indicated by a different color—to be used as a script for two voices to read separately and together. Using traditional reading teaching techniques like alliteration, rhyme, repetition, and short sentences, the text invites young children to read along, while Michael Emberley's lively illustrations enhance the stories' humor and high spirits. Goldilocks, the Little Red Hen, the Three Little Pigs, and many more beloved characters star in these tales-with-a-twist that are perfect for early and reluctant readers, readers' theater, and bedtime fun. A 2005 Notable Children's Book in the Language Arts by the Children's Literature Assembly of the National Council of Teacher of English. Also chosen as a 2004 Gryphon Award Honor Book by the Center for Children's Books. Review: Great book! Beginner readers may need help. - I love the idea of books I can read "with" my daughter. She is shy about reading aloud, but enjoys reading with me. This book gave us cute, familiar stories and rhymes to enjoy together. I am looking forward to purchasing more of the "You Read to Me, I'll Read to You" books in the near future. I wouldn't recommend for beginner readers, some words can be difficult without help (ogre, naughty, jealous). I just help my daughter along, and it has many of her Kindergarten sight words in it. Review: Best book I've ever gotten for reading instruction - This book is just wonderful. So nice that I immediately searched for all the books in the series. Just wonderful for helping my granddaughter read. She loves the back and forth of the reading - so much nicer than having her read to me (or me reading to her). She just finished first grade, so I'm trying to reinforce what she's learned. I don't want her to slide back. We both love reading 2 or 3 of these stories a day (why I needed all the books in the series). Please write more of these!

Bought the original books to teach his Daddy
These books provide hours of fun and relationship building between child and reader. When my sons were little I’d read both parts and then eventually they read both parts to me. This week I began reading them to grandchildren.

a wonderful book
I love this book. When I leave it out on the shelf in the classroom, the kids actually ask to read it. They love reading to each other. Perfect for bilinguals or kids just starting out. My own kids and I can still recite parts of it from memory ("I found a dime! You found a dime? I found a dime at dinnertime!") The illustrations are adorable and are entertaining all on their own. Buy it and share!

Dual reader
One of my students is 8 years old and in the 3rd grade. She is slightly reading-delayed. Recently I brought this book out for the reading portion of my lesson plan. In this book, the child and adult take turns reading color coded "lines" that are similar to poetry in cadence. She loved it--the book held her attention well. We giggled at the stories together. Some of the words are beyond her reading level, but it's easy to prompt her when it is her turn to read. She particularly loves the parts where we read together. This book helps develop fluency and demonstrates cadence when you are reading to your student (or child). They see that oral reading doesn't have to have a "wooden" and stilted inflection. We get quite dramatic when reading some of the lines, and she just loves this book.

These books are brilliant
I have read all the "You read to me, I read to you" with my grandchildren over FaceTime. The short format, the rhyming, the illustrations, the two parts to read are wonderful, but the best part is when you get to the last line and you see your beginning reader's face light up with joy and love. The best.

Awesome Set of Cables!
I bought these mainly for the length and overall quality. I only typically jump cars, so I can't speak to the heavy duty worthiness beyond that. I can say that I recently jump started a co-workers V8 Jeep. They were pulled in between two parked cars at an apartment community. I pulled up behind them and got my cables out of the back. They kept commenting about hoping my cables would reach. I laid them out from the battery side of my car, along the entire length of their SUV and along the front of their car. Their jaw almost hit the ground! There was still a couple of feet of cable. I really like that the clamps were coated all the way down to where the cables grip onto the terminal. I LOVE the way the clamps securely grip onto and hold the terminal. No cable I have ever owned has grabbed this securely and held on and I only buy mid-grade or higher cables. Most mid-grade cables will move on the terminal under the weight of the cables, but not these. They stayed perfectly in place while I made adjustments. Very satisfied!
