To learn about
Story Book Land and Fairy Tales that can
teach your baby to read stories, help your baby click through
the

Then proceed to Home Page #2.
The instructional animations on the home page and on FREE BOOKS are looped, so they continuously re-cycle for your baby. How do you stop the re-cycling? Easy. Just leave the page. Click a hyperlink to another page. Or leave the page by any other standard technique: Click the Back Button; Click the X in the page's upper right; etc.
This website has free flashcards and stories you can teach your baby to read. (1) Frequently, your task will be easier if you print yourself a copy of the flashcard or story. (2) Then read any instructions. (3) Then mentally rehearse the steps you go through to teach your baby to read your printed material. (4) Then start teaching your baby.
If your baby is very young, you may do better if you concentrate your first introductions to reading around Chapter 4's Easy Picture Words. Chapter 4 has huge animations of the first three words (See, I, can), as well as little stories, each of which is actually an illustration of how you teach a word. Chapter 4 also has huge flashcards of each word and all their possible sentences.
Almost every chapter has Teach-Me Rhymes like the one below. But the print in these rhymes is smaller than the print in the exercises of Chapter 4. Most babies will prefer that you simply read the rhymes to them and postpone serious instruction until after they have half-mastered the introductions in Chapter 4. Then use the rhymes to ease into sentences and smaller print.

One half as lovely
As a tree.
But lovely

I'd rather see
More babies who
Can read like me.
