It is important that the children see themselves as authors. They enjoy reading what they have helped write and illustrate. The traveling books give them an opportunity to savor these early literacy experiences.
You may want to help your child track the words as he or she reads the book. The repetition will help your child learn to read some of the words. Our main purpose, however, is that you and your child enjoy the shared reading experience.
Please illustrate your child's assigned page and return it the next day so it can travel to another child's home.
