I love being able to customize the decodables. The students were amazed at their selections being quickly inserted into a decodable they could read within seconds. The decodables were really enjoyable for the children to read!

They were excited to read their stories, find their friends' stories afterwards, and then even read random stories with interesting titles. There isn't this excitement about Epic. They're not like, “Look at this cool book that I read,” but today they were like, “Oh my gosh, read this one!”
