First stories – NURSERY SCHOOL – Volume 2

Transmitting a curiosity for books to children and getting them used to reading from an early age has positive results on cognitive, emotional and relational development. Just as with reading, observing the images of the stories and commenting on them, or even inventing new ones, produces a significant improvement in language and verbal comprehension, and an enrichment of vocabulary and syntax.

A follow-up to the first volume First Stories (Erickson, 2016), this second volume proposes 20 new stories accompanied by lively illustrations that accompany the children on the adventures of 5 funny characters:
• Dino the Dragon
• Paolo the Balloon
• Lina the Snail
• Teo the Hippopotamus
• Camillo the Fisherman.

The stories, written in capital letters to encourage direct access to the text, are aimed at children aged 4 to 6 and can be enjoyed by parents and professionals either individually, in small groups or in the classroom. The ease of use allows the volume to also be used with older children with cognitive impairment and / or language delay. At the end of each story there are exercises aimed at practicing understanding, logical associations, temporal sequencing and the recognition of the initial or final syllable of the word. The book comes complete with an attached file containing 20 scenes and 60 characters to cut out to invent new stories and play nice group games.
