MOM’S CHOICE AWARD WINNER – SILVER MEDAL!
This is a short story collection for children ages 5-8. They are perfect for bedtime or any time. They can be read by early readers or by a parent/guardian. They will provide a fun reading time for both the reader and the listener.
There are six stories with a colorful illustration of the characters of each story – one about an alien, a dragon, a fairy, a bear, a bear and a boy and a skunk. Each story will have life lessons for children to learn.
Do you want your children to read more? Do you want them to learn valuable life lessons and good behavior? Do you want your children to increase their reading levels in school? Do you want your children to learn to love to read?
I have the answers to all these questions as a mother, grandmother – YES! I want all these things for my children and grandchildren too. The only way to do this is to start your children to read when they are young by going to the library weekly to choose books or to the local book stores to increase their library. I did this with my children and now grandchildren by giving them books as gifts.
Each Christmas I spread the love of reading by gifting books to all the grandchildren, nieces and nephews. They are excited to see what new ones I have and if they are in a series.
There is nothing better than to see a child open a book and watch their eyes light up with interest and intelligence as they absorb the words and pictures (for little ones). It brings tears to my eyes to see the joy there in their little faces.
Summer is quickly leaving us and all the free time we have to read may soon be gone with school, activities and such but please make time to read a little each day. If your children see you reading, they will read too.
Check out all the books on Jemsbooks for all ages today to sneak in some last-minute summer reading. We all need to relax and unwind and reading is one way to do just that!
Did you know that reading is good for you? Reading is not only important for children but it’s also very important for adults. It not only increases your word vocabulary and stimulates your mind, but also gives you a feeling of wellbeing and promotes good health, dispels feelings of loneliness, improves your memory, promotes better patterns of sleep, and don’t forget – it brings families closer when they share and read books together.
Please consider giving books to all the children on your list for all occasions. There is nothing better than to see a child’s eyes light up when you give him/her a book – even more so when you read the book to them. You are giving them so much more than you could ever imagine, e.g., you spark their imagination, heighten their creativity, lift their spirits, increase their vocabulary, open up a whole new world to them, enhance their health and wellbeing and encourage them to love reading. The gift of a book is worth more than gold to our children, grandchildren. Keep reading and gifting books to children. Let’s bring up a generation of readers and thinkers. Thank you for your support!
