"See and Read" Series

I'm always on the lookout for excellent early reader book sets to invest in for our school. I've written before about The Magic Belt series for those kids who crave fantasy (and the progressively harder sets that come after that, which continue the adventures of Zak and Finn). For kids who prefer nonfiction, I love vintage Science I CAN READ / Nature I CAN READ books.

Now I have a new oldie-but-a-goodie series to add to the list!

Today Zac was reading Picta the Painted Turtle by Virginia Frances Voight -- which is the perfect level for him -- and I realized that the front of the book said "A SEE and READ Beginning to Read Book."

Aha! Time to track down the other titles in this 1960's series. Here's what I've found so far:
