Description
This book explores how adults can use rhymes and stories to support young children's early communication and literacy skills. By drawing on their combined experience, the authors provide practical ideas for using rhymes and oral storytelling in various settings.
The book is divided into two parts: an introduction to the benefits of using rhyme, rhythm, and repetition, and ten lively chapters featuring original and re-imagined traditional fairy tales. Each chapter includes accompanying rhymes, key themes, follow-up activities, and suggestions for enriching children's emotional, imaginative, and intellectual experience.
With its focus on practical, enjoyable experiences, this book is a valuable resource for adults looking to support young children's creative learning through rhyme and storytelling.
