IN THE GARDEN
Our accordion-style
books are printed in the USA with non-toxic soy-based ink and non-toxic UV coating for spill resistance! Printing
locally, in Louisville, Kentucky, ensures superb quality control for child safety and timely shipments for excellent customer
service. The title of the book series was created
to encourage interaction between the reader and the child in a fun way to develop early childhood literacy.
The content and simple text of our books are designed to appeal to children of all learning abilities to encourage word
recognition and enhance vocabulary development. Vivid, engaging photographs connect the child with their everyday world
and experiences.
Manipulating the books - opening, folding, etc. - helps to improve motor skills and kids
simply have a blast with the distinctive accordion-style format!

WHY
WE USE REAL PHOTOGRAPHS AND LITERACY CONCEPTS SUCH AS "FEELINGS"
Blueprint for Early Literacy® states:
"Children
make a text-to-life connection when they realize that something in their own life is similar
to something in a book that they are hearing or reading. These connections are one important part of comprehension.....By
children learning emotions, they gain the ability to name one's own emotions and then begin to build socialization skills
through discussion about reactions to situations."
