Book Reviews

Outstanding, interesting and colourful books. My 5 year old son is captivated. He wants me to read them over and over. Fun to read, awesome and well worded.

The Fumble Bumble books are wonderful books for children. They touch your heart. My son who is 4 years old loves to read them over and over again. He is always asking if there are any more Fumble Bumble books. We'll keep checking in the book stores and your website for new books.

My granddaughter loves your books. She is only 5 but she can read them because many of the words are repeated and she has fun with the rhyme. She loves the stories and the pictures too.

Our children (5 & 6) love the Fumble Bumble books. Their grandmother bought them last Christmas but she keeps them at her house. We had to get a second set because our kids want to read them all the time. They like the stories, the rhyming and the pictures. We look forward to more FB books. When will they be available here?

We were thrilled to receive your books for our daughter. She loves bumble-bees. They are her favorite books. She especially loves the pictures in the "Picnic Bee." She thinks they are the funnest pictures in any book.

These books are awesome. My daughter loves them. Sometimes "Fumble the Bumble-Bee" is all she wants me to read to her.

My son did not like reading until he found he could read the Fumble Bumble books easily. He reads them over and over, so he knows most of the stories by heart. I don't know if he can really read them or if he "reads" them from memory. What is important is that he has a lot more confidence in reading because of your books. Thank you!

My daughter is 8 years old and she is now learning English. She received the first Fumble Bumble book as a birthday present. Her aunt said it would help her learn English faster. It helped a lot. She loves reading it over and over again and showing off to her friends.

I read "Fumble the Bumble-Bee" and liked it a lot. I bought it for my nephew. He wants me to read it to him all the time. He is 4 and he can read some of it.

I love the porcupine book. I don't have kids but I love porcupines and collect anything porcupine. The themes of the book are great. It is a very kind book and the animals and pictures are adorable.

Fantastic books. All children should have the opportunity to hear them or read them. My kids love them and can't wait for more.

My daughter who is 9 loves the books because they teach about bees and she is fascinated by bumble-bees. She likes Pine the porcupine too. Keep the books coming.

Excellent books that I would recommend to children because they would help them learn to read. The books also teach lessons and are fun to read because of the rhyme. I like the pictures too.

My children, 6 and 4, adore the Bee Smart books series. They loved the rhyming pattern in the Fumble Bumble stories, and thought the Porcupine story was absolutely delightful.

The "Fumble Bumble-Bee" series of books are very stimulating reading materials for young readers at both the early literacy and lower elementary grades. The richness of the illustrations aids comprehension, fires the imagination and provide opportunities for input from children. Through rhyme, rhythm and repetition, children are given the tools necessary to ensure reading success.

The "Fumble Bumble-Bee' books provide the tools necessary for reading success. The 3 R's of early literacy (Rhyme, Rhythm and Repetition) patterning, controlled vocabulary are all present in these beautifully illustrated books making them ideal for young readers.

What a wonderful and delightful set of books the "Fumble Bumble-Bee" Series is. Children will love the rhymes and the illustrations are terrific. "Fumble Bumble Goes to School" is especially a current topic as so many children are allergic to bee stings.

My daughter is just learning to read and she loves the "Fumble Bumble-Bee" books. I have noticed a big improvement in her reading. The repetition of words, the pictures and the rhymes help a great deal. We can't wait for the next Fumble Bumble-Bee book.

These books are ideal for introducing young children to reading. My son was a very reluctant reader until he received "Fumble, the Bumble-Bee" as a gift. The detail pictures, the rhyme and the repetition really helped him gain confidence in reading.

It's about time we have children's stories about the beneficial bumble-bee. I like the way they are teaching valuable lessons without preaching. Please keep them coming. My children love the stories and illustrations.

These Bumble-bee books are the first choice of my grandson. He absolutely loves the pictures and the stories. I am amazed at how quickly he is learning to read the rhyming and repeating words.

It's back to the basics with this series of books. With their focus on phonics, the Fumble Bumble-Bee series are serious about helping children learn to read. The stories are delightful and the illustrations are wonderful.
