Our Rock-A-Bye Baby Reader is wonderful addition to the "Welcome, Baby" packets for newborns and their new parents. New moms and dads are encouraged to start a family tradition of reading and sharing books with babies.
Despertar a la lectura is our Spanish-language Baby Reader. It features popular Spanish-language rhymes and English-version poems for parents to read aloud to their babies, with Parent Notes in Spanish. Perfect in your "Welcome, Baby" packets for Spanish-speaking parents and their newborns.
Bunnaby Bunny is our English Toddler Reader. It features illustrated, read-aloud rhymes that tell the story of Bunnaby Bunny as he learns to dress
himself.
Parent Notes on the right of each spread discuss what to expect, and what to look forward to, when reading with toddlers. The photographs of families reading with their toddlers help to
model the activity for adults (while entertaining toddlers).
Our Spanish-language El conejito Claudio tells a similar story -- in Spanish verse -- of Claudio, a young rabbit who's learning to dress himself. Additionally, in
smaller type on each spread is the English-language poem from Bunnaby Bunny. Parents can choose to read aloud to their toddlers in Spanish and/or English.
Spanish-language Parent Notes on each spread inform parents of the benefits of reading with their 1- to 3-year-olds, and give some tips on reading to toddlers.
