"I have been teaching for 30 years and have reviewed many different reading programs. Superkids is the best phonics-based reading program I have ever seen. No child could ever go through the Superkids program and not have great phonics skills. The systematic letter-by-letter approach is non-threatening to even reluctant learners. Students end the year with an extensive reading vocabulary, enabling them to easily read other forms of children's literature. After all these years with the Superkids, I still look forward to teaching my reading lesson each day. Former students who are now college graduates have come back to me and told me they can still name all the Superkids and sing some of the Superkids songs. It must have made a good impression on them as well!"
