Early Childhood Love for Literacy

My Project

There are very unique books because they are pop-up books, big books, or indestructible books. These books greatly engage children during story time. Especially the big books and the pop-up books are something that my students don't have access to at home and my students would love them so much!

I would like children to know that books come in different formats like these fun books.

I would like to share my love of literacy with very young children in my classroom. These books help to enhance my students' literacy development.
