As reviewed on "The School Reading List" - July 2020 - a site run by UK librarians and teachers for suggested reading books for primary and secondary aged children in the UK: - "Charming co-written book for children aged 4-9. Dealing with themes of feeling isolated, courage in the face of adversity, the importance of keeping mentally and physically healthy and being resilient. We thought this book fitted in perfectly with the mood of the world at the moment. It's idea to read at home and maybe inspire the writing bug in your own child!" We have all felt lonely sometimes - those first few weeks at a new kindergarten, school or job or even arising out of all sorts of situations when we have be...
One rainy afternoon a little bear sets out on a train of observation, deduction and enquiry that leads him to an unmistakeable conclusion: the toilet is not trying to eat him - it is just noisy water. Armed with this unassailable logic he draws on his inner bravery to bypass his potty and use the the toilet all by himself for the very first time. Children are encouraged to identify with the brave little thinking bear and his highly intelligent and encouraging sister. This book is designed to be read again and again until the child understands the simple train of logic and comprehends clearly that the toilet is not to be feared but is rather a mechanism controlled by water. The last page contains step by step instructions for actual usage. These instructions give the child confidence to embark on her/his very own right of passage - the first time they use an adult toilet. This is a Thinking Bear Publication for the early learner. Thinking Bear Publications gently promote logical thinking through interesting observation and fun enquiry.
Between the time of birth and the age of two, children are food vacuum cleaners gobbling up all sorts of healthy food choices without fear or favour. If it’s on the plate it gets eaten. Then at about age two, something remarkable happens. They (not all) - become fussy eaters and vegetables come to be seen as somehow an affront to their very existence. Mealtimes become battle fields and what parent has not thrown up their hands when their little ones puts on the show of a lifetime just to avoid eating a single pea. I was no different and I went to those mealtime battles and lost and lost badly and so fed (and ate) with my daughter spaghetti bolognese for dinner for the next two years - just...
Rachel and Little Ted wake up early one Saturday morning, dress and eat a big healthy breakfast to give them all the energy they will need for their big day ahead. They are going by train to Sydney Harbour where they will pass through an interesting market, a very big tunnel and climb the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Journey with our little bears as they climb the stairs up to the lookout at the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge Pylon and marvel at the beautiful harbour scenery. Rachel is a very smart little bear as she planned and carried out the whole day trip all by herself. Rachel is a kind and caring character who gives constant reassurance and positive affirmations to her younger brother. Lit...
