Popular Children’s Books

Image
Popular children’s books can be defined as best-selling children’s books, most read children’s books, or most recognized children’s books. The most popular children’s books are picture books for children. Children associate words with pictures learning to read faster with a greater vocabulary with a book that includes many pictures. There are picture books with no words but it’s rare to find a picture book with no pictures. A wordless book can become popular with the initial introduction, but seldom remains popular. Much emphasis has been put on educators, authors, publishers and professional reviewers about book popularity. However, the ultimate test of a book’s popularity resides not with the adult, but with the child. Upon the completion of the reading of a book, if the child immediately says “read it again”, this is your first clue that your child thinks this book is popular. Listed among the typical interests of children’s book authors, are books that teach, entertain, are ...

Reading aloud will have the most beneficial effect on the child’s ability to assimilate into kindergarten and excel. There are four thresholds of vocabulary in the child’s mind. Before the child enters kindergarten these four vocabularies must be enhanced. Listening Vocabulary . The listening vocabulary starts prior to birth. This vocabulary starts in an elementary stage and can be refined to perfection with correct practice. The art of listening is added to every day. The listening vocabulary is similar to a lake when it overflows the excess drains to the next threshold which is the speaking vocabulary. Speaking Vocabulary . The listening vocabulary overflow will increase the child’s ability to start speaking the words that they have heard. A word that is never heard is the word never spo...

Beginner Books

Image
Beginner books are the first books for children. A beginner book is a picture book . In addition to pictures the book has fairly simple easy words. These early reader books are different from just children’s books or chapter books. Beginner books are commonly known as kindergarten books, emerging readers, beginning readers, or easy readers. These books are designed so the child can master sight words and decode the text corresponding with the picture. A beginner book can have larger fonts, short sentences, repetitive phrases, and rhymes that help the child identify the word with the picture. If the author has mastered the recipe of brilliant pictures combined with beginning reading words that keeps the child engaged, then there is a better chance the child’s reading experience will be a happy one that leads to further reading. Prior to Beginner Books, parents of emergent readers were limited to basal reader books such as Jack and Jill ran up the Hill and Ned in the First Reader (t...

There are almost 50,000 new children’s books written every year. To determine the best children’s book author, we will start with the youngest age which is called picture books for children 0 to 8 years old. The formula to determine “best” children’s book author is compiled by books sold, number one bestseller, awards, and children’s response. Getting the “Read It Again Award” is the highest indicator to determine best children’s book authors.

Your Legacy Starts Here

Legacy is a gift. Some people only recognize legacy as money, property or things. In reality a legacy can be Stories, Books, a reputation, but the greatest is “A legacy of Love”. Grandma was the matriarch. All stories led to her, all celebrations included her, all her children showed up for Mother’s Day, Christmas and her birthday. The grandchildren all have fond memories of those family gatherings. Good times, good food and a bonding that lasted long after grandma was gone. Oh the memories, ahh the stories, OMG, the smell of bacon, biscuits and eggs in the waking mornings, the sweet hugs and kisses, there was no comparison! But the memory of the kind, understanding sound of her voice still comforts me today 50 years after the voice was stilled for the final time. Her son, my Dad, said, “Mom, this is a tape recorder and here are some blank tapes, please push the record button and tell your life story…” Grandma sat in her chair rocking a motherly smile as she clutched the recorder...

Who Are You Gold Literary Titan Award

Who Are You by Dr. Qooz wins the May 2020 Gold Literary Titan Award. “Sight to See: Seeing is Believing , written by Dr Qooz and illustrated by Irena Urosevic, is a wonderful book for children that could very well open their eyes to a clearer, brighter world. The main character in the story suffers from many problems and is not able to identify the cause of all his troubles until receiving the help and advice of a friend who suggests that the main character may require the help of an optometrist. Glasses soon follow and our main character is amazed at what he has been missing. Sight to See: Seeing is Believing encourages children – and their parents – to consider whether they are fully equipped to take in the world around them. The message this smart book coveys in a brilliantly illustrated fashion is that many children suffer from not resolving vision-related problems and that providing children with a solution can drastically improve their life experiences.

Chasing Scaredy Away, No More Fraidy of the Dark. Child Fear Overcoming Child Fear including pretend things like, the dark, ghost and monsters can be accomplished by addressing the fears through positive book readings and continued discussions with the child. If the child is afraid or stressed, take them seriously and let them tell you more about their fears. No fear is silly, no fear has ever been conquered by saying, “Just be brave.” Learning to overcome fear is always achieved quicker with a supportive parent.

Here are a few suggestions of comfort to share with the child: • “When I was little, I was afraid too, but my mother told me to turn on a light”, • Put a nightlight in your child’s room. “I’ll leave the nightlight on.” • “Sprinkle pixie dust (water and glitter) in the bedroom (to help good children play)”, • Ask the child if Mommy should be scared too, and what should she do to not be scared? •...
