I am beginning my third year of teaching first grade in South Washington County. The students LOVE Danny! I integrate science and math into my literacy as much as possible, so any books with topics related to these subjects are helpful. The look of the Danny books are great! The font is the perfect size, the photos are fun, and the titles are clear. Thank you for these excellent resources!

I like the real pictures. Kids see those and are interested right away. I also really like the book fonts. Easy to read and and spacing between letters and words is perfect.
