About the Series
With beautiful photography and engaging text, these storybooks provide an innovative, interactive way for parents and children to read together. They also introduce phonics and other concepts that help children master reading and writing.
Spoken language in children develops as a result of recognising sounds in their environment. When a child first speaks, it mimics sounds that are reinforced by adults. Over time, the sounds are refined to form words.
Understanding language stems from the earliest interactions between parent and child. Conversing with children is extremely important in developing the first stages of literacy. It is crucial that children also learn to listen, follow directions, interpret meaning, and interact socially. Well-developed listening skills aid concentration and help with learning and problem solving. Parents can make literacy fun by including songs, rhymes, jingles, and stories in a child's daily play.
This series addresses the importance of reading storybooks with a child, talking to a child, developing vocabulary and having fun.
