Award-winning Children's Book Guides Kids to Early Social Literacy
CARMEL, N.Y. (PRWEB) October 07, 2016 -- Author, educator and children's education advocate Rosella Calauti believes social literacy is a key skill in the context of the 21st century. Aiming to equip the younger generation with this modern world survival skill, she puts together "Friends" (published by AuthorHouse), an exquisitely woven tale of friendship that inspires young readers to nurture their social selves and build healthy, well-rounded relationships in the real world.
"Friends" is specifically designed for tots 2 to 5 years old. During these formative years, the child experiences rapid growth and development and “Friends” supports the development of skills necessary for the establishment of a strong social ground as they strive to become independent. The book encourages young children to feel secure as they develop, and experience their first encounters of making friends, while they explore the world and continue to become individuals. It is ideal for teachers, parents and caregivers who wish to discuss how to share and play cooperatively. In addition to the topic of building friendships, the book also helps develop recognition of words that are opposites and introduces adverbs (here, there, and everywhere) as part of its educational aspect. It seeks to motivate children to inquire about friendships, relate to them, and suggests places to find friends, while strengthening reading and writing skills.
An inspiring and educational book, "Friends" opens a whole world of new possibilities for children everywhere. This book has been awarded with the Purple Dragonfly Book Award, an award recognizing excellence in children’s literature given by Five Star Publications.
