Book Cover & Preview Text
This picture book is designed to be read to young children, read together with young children, and read independently by young children. The repetitive sentence starter "I like books" provides a degree of predictability as well as a positive view of books. The topic for each page is relevant to young children and/or provides a stimulus for asking questions and finding out new information. The illustrations assist with making meaning of the simply worded text, and provide a backdrop for each page that is bound to spark children's imaginations. The selection of the two characters ensures that there is a gender balance as well as representation from both Caucasian and Asian backgrounds. The rhyming of the last word in each line acts as a reading prompt and can also be used to brainstorm additional rhyming words. In this way, the book is also suitable as a reader for students in countries in which English is not the first language.
