One Hundred Shoes (Step into Reading) Kindle Edition

Brought books for my son can read and get better with his reading level. He loves the book. Fast shipping!

My 6 year old grandson loves this book and looks forward to reading it to me. It does have a few long words in it, but he learned them.

Yesterday, my four-year-old son spotted his first millipede. (My husband called it a centipede -- Thank goodness for Google!) Anyway, the multi-footed creature soon became a math topic. And that math topic led to me finding this book.Although my little boy can read only a few words on his own, we have started incorporating "easy readers" into his story times. They tend to be shorter, so instead of reading three books, we can easily read five books in the same amount of time. They also tend to feature repetition and showcase certain words so that kids can learn to read on their own. They can also be really boring for the adult reader. Two things save One Hundred Shoes from falling into that final category: Charles Ghigna's wit and Bob Staake's artwork.One Hundred Shoes is a clever and rather sweet book in poem. Charles Ghigna creates such wonderful "word pictures" that the poem could stand alone without illustration. He also, however, creates such marvelous phrases that a talented illustrator can walk right in (pun intended), and Bob Staake does.Bob Staake takes the witty phrases and amplifies them to the point of the hilarious with his brilliant and silly illustrations. Every pages vibrates with activity and humor, but, as a Chucks girl, I have to say that my favorite two-page spread has the sneakers on it.

This was a good read and she enjoys the independence in reading

My four year old LOVES this book and I am happy to read it with him. I bought it because he kept asking what 100 was. It is an adorable little story with super cute illustrations, but teaches a lot in the process. I love the way it introduces the concepts of division and multiplication in a very simple way (i.e. do you buy your shoes in two sets of fifty, or five sets of twenty?).As an added bonus my son is now noticing centipedes everywhere and isn't as keen to just step on and crush them. Instead he is wanting to know what they eat, how they live, etc.I would give this book 10 stars if I could.

I bought this book for my grandson. He loves this book

One Hundred Shoes (Step-Into-Reading, Step 2)  One Hundred Shoes (a.k.a. the centipede book, in our home) is GREAT. I bought it as a "math" reader for my kids, ages 5, 6 and 9. They all enjoy it but my 5yr. old son esp. LOVES it. We began reading it just before K5 began and he memorized it w/in two days. Although it's currently beyond his reading level, it has served as a great incentive; he is learning/beginning to actually read the book he loves so much. It does Not touch on "math" aspects as much as expected however my kids love the rhyming and the fantasy of a centipede wearing shoes and wearing different types for different occasions has offered scope to broaden their imagination! They immediately looked up centipedes on the internet to "see" what a real centipede looks like,etc.We read it often as it maintains its appeal :-) Five Silly Fishermen (Step-Into-Reading, Step 2)A Dollar For Penny (Step-Into-Reading, Step 2)

My daughter loves this book and wants to read it all the time. She is in Kindergarten and she can read it by herself. Good repetition and rhyming words!
