Beginning with Books

Beginning with Books' charming mix of words and pictures is an unthreatening way to involve parents in their child’s early literacy development – this book emphasises the sheer fun involved. Have you ever wondered...

- Why does it matter that we share books with our children from an early age?
- How do I read stories with my child?
- When should I read stories with my child?
- Where can I go to find the best books for my child?
- When can my child become a library member? (as soon as he or she is born!)

Beginning with Books offers just the right combination of guidance and fun for parents of young children. Widely used by teachers, librarians, social workers and health visitors to support early literacy initiatives such as Bookstart and Stepping Stones, this delightfully illustrated booklet is ideal for the parents of young children.
