Earlier this year, the Homeschool Crew had opportunity to review a great spelling curriculum from All About Spelling. Now we would like to introduce you to a new reading book, from the makers of All About Spelling —
The Beehive Readers are a new reading series brought to you by the innovative spelling program All About Spelling. Crew members received a copy of Beehive Reader 1 for review.
Some general information about Beehive Reader 1:
- It was created for the beginning reader.
- It is a collection of 10 short stories on 160 pages inside a high-quality hardcover book.
- Each page is printed on non-glare paper, making it easy on the eyes for children.
- The reader correlates 100% with All About Spelling Level 1.
- When one is using AAS Level 1, instructions are included in the corresponding lesson when it is time for the student to read a story in the reader, making it easy on the parent for scheduling reading time.
- The reader can also be used independently of the AAS program.
- It is written with natural phrasing and line breaks, making for smooth, enjoyable reading for the student.
- The subtle underlining helps with tracking if needed, but otherwise easily ignored if not needed.
- Beautiful illustrations throughout the book are included, and the stories use simple words and sentences.
- Natural language and real storylines, including some funny stories make reading enjoyable for both student and parent.
- Beehive Reader 1 was recently awarded a Silver Medal for The Moonbeam’s Children’s Book Awards.
Here’s what All About Spelling has to say about the Beehive Reader 1:
“Your beginning reader will delight in finding out what happens when…
…a busy cat lives in a windmill
…a sleepy bear cub takes a nap
…a grumpy duck demands a snack
…a singing bat befriends a lonely king
…a curious boy shrinks from tall to small
…and much more!”
The readers are part of a new series developed by All About Spelling called All About Reading. A new website for All About Reading is in development and will be available this summer.
All About Spelling has given the Crew some sample pages to share with you.
Beehive Reader 1 is available for purchase for $19.95 at the All About Spelling Website.
Be sure to visit the TOS Crew Members links to read the reviews of Beehive Reader 1.

I am going to order this for my children. It looks wondrful!
This is a beautiful little beginning reader.
This is a lovely beginning reader for children. Love the illustrations.
My little ones feel so grown up to be able to read from a hardback book. They call each story a chapter… 🙂

This is such an awesome little reader in the same nice quality as the rest of the AAS materials and coorelates with the AAS level one program!! Very cool! Can't wait til Levi is ready for it!
I have never seen my son so excited about a book. He loved the stories, pictures, and everything else about it.
