Book Features Short Bedtime Stories for Children
MOSCOW (PRWEB) April 17, 2018 -- Bruce D. R. Grant brings forth a book series about the humorous antics of a 3 1/2 year-old child and his 1 1/2 year-old brother. The series that contains short bedtime stories features their learning curves and the games they play displaying their imaginations and control of their parents. The first book is titled “The Humorous Adventures of Spindle Sticks and Ballast Bum - Book 1 Story 1: Typical Brothers! and Story 2: A Trip in the Car!” (published by Partridge Singapore).
Set for a new marketing campaign, these short bedtime stories are designed to be read out loud to the young ones, with explanations of what Spindle Sticks and Ballast Bum are doing on each page, with the reader asking questions of the listener. To help the storyteller and also the young listener to better understand the 'bold' typed words, there is a short thesaurus or synonym list at the lower left of each page, offering alternative words to those used.
“Children love to associate with fun and happy stories, regardless of whether there is a little sadness or upset. They look for the 'happy ending' of the story and sigh with pleasure when it occurs. These books are no different,” Grant concludes.
