Here's why:
- Gorgeous illustrations: All different mediums, bold colors, depth, and intrigue, sure to grab the attention of children and adults.
- Audio! This was a HUGE plus for me. Finding quality literature that has audio components is so important. It not only enhances the whole experience, it helps our struggling readers access text with ALL their senses. A win-win. Some books, like their Atlas, have amazing and award winning apps!
- Quality stories: I was so impressed with the wide variety of genres, Barefoot Books offers. Classic folktales, poetry, nursery rhymes, fantasy, myths, are just some of the choices.
- Fun Facts! When you open a Barefoot Book, very often there will be several pages with non-fiction text explaining something in our world. This a fabulous way to pair fiction with non-fiction, and it's a real plus for teachers, too.
- My little guy begs me to read these books and listen to the stories and songs all the time. I know yours will too!
