Kids will learn 150 phrases for everyday activities in our first wimmelbook with words! The My Big Wimmelbooks series is…
an effortless introduction to literacy that lets beginning readers ages 2 to 5 be the storyteller—with hours of seek-and-find hands-on learning. In these oversize board books, every page is bursting with life—and tons to discover! Children as young as two have a blast pointing out recognizable things—a blue tricycle, a hungry dog, a piggyback ride—while older kids can follow the star characters from page to page, telling their stories along the way. How? Wimmelbooks are virtually instruction-free, inviting kids to make their own way through the busy Wimmelworld they encounter, and to craft their own stories. First, you’re introduced to a unique cast of characters who are hidden in plain sight on the pages that follow. As you seek them out, each character’s storyline unfolds, but it’s up to kids to interpret the scenes and create stories they think fit. I Can Do It! brings in an extra educational element, with simple text on each spread that parents can read to children or children can try to sound out all by themselves. As the characters explore places like a neighborhood, school, city center, garden, and beachside carnival, short phrases call out what they’re doing. Can you find someone tying their shoes? Look at the friends playing hide-and-seek! Who’s going to sleep? This word-filled wimmelbook is sure to provide hours of imaginative fun—and an excellent introduction to literacy!

Par Katie Smith Milway. 2008
This is the hen that Kojo bought . . . This is the story of how changes happen in the…
world, one person, one family, one community at a time. Kojo lives in a small town in Ghana, West Africa. He and his mother survive by gathering and selling firewood. There is never much money or food--just enough to get by. When Kojo is given a small loan, he has an idea. He will use the money to buy a hen, so that they will have eggs to eat. Soon there are extra eggs to sell at the market. With the profits, Kojo buys more hens and eventually earns enough for his school fees. After finishing school, he gets a bigger loan and gradually builds up a poultry farm, hires workers and pays taxes that improve his community. Along the way, Kojo loans others money so that they too can leave poverty behind. One Hen is a persuasive story of how reaching out to help someone with a small loan can have a big impact. But it is more than just a story. Kojo is based on a real person, Kwabena Darko, who really did change his community and now is helping others do the same through a microcredit lending program. Change can happen, one person at a time.Powwow Counting in Cree

Par Sheryl Taylor Sinner Bhame. 2024
As with any enduring fairy tale, children will want to listen to Four Seasons with the Poppets again and again,…
to revisit the charming world of the Poppets. The seasonal stories speak to a child’s senses, describing picturesque scenes. In spring, how pretty the forest looked when the flowers were in bloom; in summer, the animals would come visit to hear Margie’s and Millie’s songs; in fall, gathering pine cones for Mother Poppet’s fires; in winter, ‘The roasted acorn smelled just like Christmas dinner should smell.’ Throughout the story are life lessons: appreciation for and conservation of the world around them, inclusion and encouragement of others, teamwork, and neighbourliness. Children are comforted, learning about the continuity of the seasons. “When Father Poppet saw how the sun made the frozen creek look like a sparkling white path, he decided to whittle ice skates for the children next spring, out of soft green wood, that would dry and harden in time for Christmas next winter.” When children use their imagination, it develops their ability to problem solve.A Rainbow in Brown
