My Project

The assorted books, storytelling puppet sets and conversation starter cards I've requested will build on and expand a love of reading and storytelling as well as encourage social interactions, creativity, and confidence in my littlest learners.

"Books just aren't made of words, they're also filled with places to visit and people to meet."

One of the best ways for children to become early readers is to supply them with books that are based around their interests. Fostering the love of reading and supplying them with their favorite books and a lap to sit on or a friend to read with will excite my kiddos and help them grow as readers.
