Publisher Description
What lies within the pages of a book? For one child in author Dy Ann Maddox’s latest children’s book, Read to Me, it is an adventure waiting to be explored. It’s a chance to learning what animals look like and getting to laugh at funny words the characters say.
A young girl asks an adult to read to her a book, one that could make her laugh, cackle or chuckle. Her excitement for hearing the book being read to her is expressed through every page, mirroring what any child might feel during the reading of a book.
Read to Me is set in rhyming schemes at each line’s end, which help in conveying the excitement young readers might feel as they await what will happen within each page turn.
The book shows the typical reactions of a child as he/she is reading or listening to a new book through the whimsical illustrations shown on each page. Wanting to see the pictures and looking forward to laughing are common responses Read to Me demonstrates to readers with the illustrations on the book’s pages.
Dy Ann mentions that reading is important in the cognitive development of children and encouraging their imaginations to grow. Dedicating her book to her four children and seven grandchildren, Dy Ann advises all children, and adults, to read a book everyday to open their eyes to some exciting reading adventures.
So, if you are looking for a book that is not only an enjoyable read for all ages, but is also educational in the lessons about reading, Read to Me is a book that’s quite the page-turner.
