Treasured Wisdom: Celebrate! Wise Words
“Each page brings along a new message, opening up to an array of talking points. And that’s what this book is about—getting kids to discuss and discover more about their relationships with the more elderly generation. With warmth and love, wonderful moments kids have with their grandparents are introduced. Some young readers will easily identify with. But even for those situations which aren’t as close, the idea is still clear. Grandparents and elders offer more than loving comfort, they have words of wisdom, too.”
We’re More Alike Than Different: Celebrate! Diversity
“From games to family to habits, these pages take a flip-flop on diversity and shows the similarities people share. Each page offers a rhyme with a new thought, and this thought is than deepened and opened up to discussion thanks to a related question at the bottom of the page. Young listeners are encouraged not only to hear about the shared qualities, but join in and discover some themselves.”
The Way We’re Made: Celebrate! Self-Esteem
“Diversity is a natural fact of life, and this is a fun celebration of just that.
“Short, clear, and fun—these three words describe this lovely dive into everything which makes us different from each other. No two people are alike, and these pages tackle that with joyful clarity. From freckles to birthmarks to skin color to hair, each person has traits to call their own. And this is good so.”
Counting Critters: Celebrate Number Sense
“This book was more fun than I thought it’d be. While the main theme is number sense, it starts off with something which entice kids or make them screech and shiver—insects and creepy crawlies. These characters head out into the backyard and search for whatever bugs they can find. The mention of numbers does not come right away, allowing listeners to get wrapped up in the bug discovery first. Listeners will easily relate, and probably be itching themselves to get out and do their own searches.”
