Circle C Beginnings Review & Giveaway

Welcome to Day 6 of my 10,000 Subscriber Celebration!  Today I’m excited to giveaway a set of 4 Circle C Books!

The Circle C Beginnings Series by Susan K. Marlow, is geared towards children ages 6-8. The stories follow six-year old Andi, her horse Taffy, and her family and friends on the Circle C ranch in 1874. The Circle C Beginnings are very cute and easy to read stories that are great for those ready for their first chapter books. The pages are filled with hand drawn illustrations and the stories are entertaining!

There are also free Activity Packs that include mazes, dot-to-dots, vocabulary, maps, writing, math, history, crafts and coloring pages! They offer free online or printable 20 piece Puzzles. And A Journey for Learning has also made Lapbooks you can purchase to go along with the stories if you choose.

This series currently has 4 books available, and 2 more coming soon:

• No more ponies!
• It’s just a made-up story…or is it?
• It’s not fair!
• School is scary!
• Why can’t Taffy be a foal forever? (Coming Soon)
• Unhappy holidays! (Coming Soon)

What’s the Cost? $ 15.96/set of 4, or $4.99 ea.

See them for yourself!

What We Thought:

My kids are really enjoying these stories! The plots are cute, easy to follow and I like that there are still lots of great illustrations going through the stories. We like pictures over here, and books without them aren’t too popular yet.

The chapters are around 6 pages long and each book approximately 80 pages. They’re fairly easy to get through and the type is also a good size for young readers. Even my younger kids loved to sit and listen to the stories as we read aloud. They are great authentic stories of character development and the activity packs are a great way to enhance reading comprehension at the same time!
