“No Key Stage 1 classroom should be without the whole set.”
The Bookseller
Tremendous visual appeal of a quality that is unmatched by other early reading series. No Key Stage 1 classroom should be without the whole set.
The Bookseller
The Usborne Beginners and Young Readers series are increasingly being recognized and celebrated as having both the production values, content, and visual and commercial appeal demanded by the home market, and also the clear structure supporting children's reading development that is desired by schools. In my opinion, the Usborne Beginners and Young Readers series are by far the most appealing and comprehensive reading development supports available, now offering a vast range of subjects.
The Bookseller
An excellent series. Carefully designed to appeal to early readers, the books have accessible vocabulary and easy reading text, clear pictures, a contents page, index and glossary - all excellent for helping children to learn to use books for research. Short chunks of text and plenty of pictures make these books really fun to read.

Horses and Ponies
I like this book because the illustrations are beautiful and the pictures look very real. I like the facts because they are on each page and I always read them when I turn a page. I like the pictures on the page where it says Keeping clean because the picture of the horse rolling on the grass. IT'S SO CUTE.

My daughter loves this
This is currently my daughter's favorite book. So many horses! Doing such interesting things! It's beautifully presented and contains some facts that are actually quite interesting for adults too.
