Recommend Books or Tools That Help Kids Learn to Read?

I have a 6 yo daughter in Kindergarten. My question is 2 folds: 1. What books or series do you recommend for a beginning reader?

Honest Opinions of Those Owning the LeapPad 1 or 2

Hello, I'm sure this has been asked several times but I'm looking for recent honest opinions of the following gaming systems. Our kids are 7, 5, and 4 Please Note: We own (1) Leapfrog Explorer & (3) DS systems Honest opinons... Is it really worth getting the new LeapPad 1/2 OR is the Explorer just about the same (minus the fact it doesn't have a camera) Again, I'm very familiar with the Explorer since we have one. The DS is just not educational. I have seen that the Explorer has really helped in letter recognition...
