My reading journey started in this book. My parents used to read this book to me every night when I was a baby. I don’t remember those times yet but Mommy said I was really focused while she was reading me the stories in this book.

Nea’s Experiences and Review

My favorite characters are Rico and farmer Phil because they are so hardworking
The book is fun, easy to read and understand and has lessons too.
What I liked best are the illustrations and stories

Mommy said that when I was in my toddler year I would always choose the “Busy Day” story about the day of a busy and hungry fireman named Rico. I giggled every time my Mommy mentioned Rico. It was years ago so I don’t remember why I liked him. But reading the story now, I find Rico cute, hardworking and brave. He rescued a cat from the top of a tree! Who wouldn’t like him?

Daddy and I had a special fun bonding with the “Lost and Found” story. This story is about farmer Phil. I found that the illustration of the sheep is really funny.

Daddy bought this book from Fullbooked as his pasalubong for me.

This is a special book because not only it introduced me to written words but it made us start our family’s fun bedtime story routine.

The font size is bigger and illustrations are cute and colorful so each page can catch the attention of a pre-toddler kid.
