Posted on October 18, 2023 by Alyssa Sonnenburg

Posted on June 1, 2023 by Alyssa Sonnenburg

Nothing opens your mind to new worlds and new possibilities better than a book. Stories can communicate ideas, themes, and lessons considerably better than a lecture does. Children love to act out the stories of their favorite characters, adopting their mannerisms and wishing to be them.
