Reading is the foundation for education. Having books in the home not only prepares children for their education, it presents a unique opportunity for sharing, which leads to bonding between the parent and child. Our most important goal as parents is to share ourselves with our children. Through sharing, we convey not only our love, but our values, our principles and our ideals. It is the basis of all healthy and successful childrearing.
Sharing Usborne books with your child enriches and deepens the parent-child relationship. Through the hands-on activities presented in the books, children learn important social skills such as paying attention, taking turns and working cooperatively with others. These skills are prerequisites for working productively.
Usborne books are fascinating, lavishly illustrated books written with humor, surprise, and drama. They incorporate activities and puzzles to challenge a child's observation and intelligence. Their superb printing quality and exceptionally well-produced graphics, high ratio of pictures to text, short magazine-like format, and unique detail set Usborne books apart from anything yet produced. There is a wide range of subjects covering hobbies, science, nature, parent's guides and more. Usborne books truly appeal to all ages, infants to adults, with prices ranging from $3.95 and up plus shipping. It's a rewarding experience when a child opens a book and their interest is piqued.
Usborne's unique features include:
Step-by-step explanations of the "How's and Why's".
Cutaway illustrations so children can get the inside view.
Double page layouts which open so that the book is easily propped up, enticing the child to delve into the pictures.
Pages filled with activity - a lot of material to explore on each topic.
Straightforward text consistently positioned below each picture simplifying the reading exercise - the use of short sentences encourages the child to read.
Many of our preschool books feature charming illustrations by Stephen Cartwright with a "find the duck" theme throughout.
