As always, you’ve provided a great resource for parents and others who are looking to buy a book as a gift for a child. Thank you, Elizabeth…keep up the good work! Reading to young children is important on so many levels.
If parents are wanting to extend the learning experience with quick crafts and easy cooking activities that match up to 100 picture book recommendations, I hope they will check out my book, Show Me How! Build Your Child’s Self-Esteem Through Reading, Crafting and Cooking…no batteries required because it’s all powered by a child’s imagination.
