It is Children's Book Week!

It is Children's Book Week - while I think every week, every day should be a day to engage children with books, I'm happy there is a week to focus on Children's Books! So, let's look at some of the benefits of reading books with children and then I'll share a couple children's books you might get for the children you love.

Did you know . . . 

  • Books create warm emotional bonds between kids and their parents, teachers, grandparents or other adults who read to them.
  • Reading books help children develop basic language skills and expand their vocabulary.
  • Books offer kids an opportunity to identify feelings, contextualize circumstances, and find connection with certain challenges they are facing.
  • Children’s books help to promote brain development in kids while encouraging imaginative thinking.
You will find more information on Children's Book Week at this link. Since Children's Books are clearly things which benefit the children we love, take a look at these books - they are fun reads for the children you love . . . 

Bedtime Fun with The Little Ginormous, Humungous, Hairy, One-Eyed Monster Boy's Adventures!
In "The Little Ginormous, Humungous, Hairy, One-Eyed
Monsters' Adventures", you will find two stories - “
There are Teeny, Tiny, Itty, Bitty, Not-so-Hairy, Two-eyed People Children Under My Bed!” where children will identify with the little ginormous, humungous, hairy, one-eyed monsters when they think they see a peculiar, scary, and terrifying teeny, tiny, itty, bitty, not-so-hairy, two-eyed people child under their bed! Of course when grandma monster tells the monster boys there can not be a people child under their bed because the people children are at their grandma's and poppa's house on a sleepover, it opens up an important conversation about how the little monster boys are really very much like the little people children.

In “The Little Ginormous, Humongous, Hairy, One-Eyed Monster Boys & Their Not-So-Peculiar, Scary, or Terrifying Discovery!” the little monster boys discover teeny, tiny, itty, bitty, not-so-hairy, two-eyed people children are moving in to a house down the street, so they decide to see for themselves if they are really peculiar, scary, and terrifying - or not.

In these books children will discover, along with the little ginormous, humungous, hairy, one-eyed monsters they are able to make friends with children who may not look like them. Just because they do not look the same, it does not mean they are “peculiar, scary, or terrifying” because we all are very much the same, whether we look alike or not.
