This is the entire and complete set for BambinoLUK. The books are listed for age 3-5 but you might be able to use them even with a slightly younger child. To use them you must place an open book under a Beyond123 BambinoLUK Controller... then you move tiles from the top to bottom page to answer the questions. These books range in difficultly so kids can work at their own pace.
For very young kids and special education... I suggest you buy the age 2 special primary book set as it focuses on the images on those 6 tiles, how to read the LUK icons, how to do LUK self-checking, etc. My just 2 year old really got into the primary books and was then able to do some of the books in this age 3-5 set. However, my son cannot do the self checking and only matches "same to same."
Overall, these books so far have really grown my son's attention to detail, but some things seem too high of a level for him like matching opposites or things that go together. Also, some pages are pretty hard for him since he is only two (like matching flowers when all the options are red and yellow - could only tell them apart by the petals/center sizes). Clearly this is meant for 3-5 year olds, but I am very surprised how a little instruction of how to distinguish between objects, then the light goes on and my son figures out the matching.
Overall, I am surprised how tricky some of the questions are and how it gets kids to work on that critical thinking / visual perception at a young age by removing the need to write. I personally think they should make a set for 1-2 year olds without the self checking system and to be used with an instructor/adult who does the checking instead. My son would have been very very happy to play this game earlier and for a longer time frame. I intend to buy more from this company.

- Starting to Count
Set 2:
- Seek and Compare
- Farm Animals
