British School in Tokyo 18.12.02
I would recommend the Word Wasp, without reservation, to every busy SENCO, worried parent and frustrated child: A fantastic resource!
Yorkshire Evening Post 29 11 2001
Phil Jackson, SENCO, results have been startling.. including a student whose reading-age improved by nineteen months in the past year.

Its a pity there wasn't such a book, as yours, when my son was at school forty-five years ago.
Customer Reviews
Word Wasp
My 8 year old daughter was recommended to use this book by our LEA educational support unit. She has always struggled with spellings, which has been linked to hearing problems. This book takes a child right back to basics (such as how to spell 'a', 'b', 'c' etc, and then moves on to sound blends. Although time consuming, it has begun to make a noticable difference and we are not yet a quarter of the way through the book. Her reading ability has also improved. I do think the book was expensive though,but what price can you put on success?
Word Wasp
I work as a teaching assistant / literacy coach and I think it is the best "one to one" scheme for teaching reading and spelling rules that I have ever encountered. I have used the Word Wasp personally and it is also used at my son's school. Even if your child does not have reading or spelling problems the Word Wasp will give them a fantastic head start. Every parent and every child should have one. The new edition is great too, much more user friendly and even better still you dont have to be a genius to use it. It taught me as I used it, it comes with instructions and it really does work!
