My First Steps to Reading

Teaching children the fundamentals of reading, and supporting parents in teaching children how to read.

My First Steps to Reading is a series of 26-books published by The Child’s World® and written by award-winning author Jane Belk Moncure. In a playful, narrative style, each book leads a child through one letter of the alphabet, helping them recognize the letter and the sound the letter represents. Along with A Parent’s Guide to My First Steps to Reading, this set of books allows parents to be active participants in their child’s learning, and gives pre-readers the keys that unlock the door to the world of reading.
