Long used by most Catholic schools and countless homeschooling families, the American Cardinal Readers are tried and true, well-loved companions for children developing their reading skills. The American Cardinal Readers begin following the family adventures of John, Jean, and Baby, with simple sentences to ease your child into reading stories. As he or she progresses through the series, the books grow longer, the vocabulary expands, and the stories become more complex, guiding and challenging young readers to enhance their reading comprehension.
