Bob Books Set 5 introduces the important new skills of long vowels and the magical silent E.

Stories and pictures to make learning alphabet sounds enjoyable. Written in three-letter words and short sentences, with a few new letters added in each story.

Three cute characters—one round, one rectangular, and one triangular—play hide-and-seek behind different shapes and children are invited to help find them. On a picnic the characters share oranges, pizza, and sandwiches, again with shapes for children to recognize." --publisher's website

The Great Book of Bob is a unified collection of humorous, soul-wrenching, and harshly honest tales and thoughts gleaned from a lifelong love story-stories of a poet's love of sunrises, poetic epiphanies, laughter, and for the soul mate of his life.
