My Summer Helper Aug 10, 2009
Hooray! I finally found a resource to help my kindergartener practice strengthening his fine motor skills. He resisted printing letters, but he liked drawing the pictures in this book. As was suggested in the book, I wrote down his words about the pictures he drew. Now, he is willing to copy the words that I wrote down for him. He is getting more interested in writing because he is producing his own "stories".
Our 4 ½ year-old daughter is also interested in drawing the pictures. Our son has assumed the role of "teacher", helping to guide his sister through the sequential steps. The role of leader has increased his self-esteem. This book has been a great help over the summer; we packed it with lots of drawing materials whenever we traveled. We always had something educational and entertaining for the kids to do. Thanks for offering this book for sale!

Wonderful book! Jul 06, 2009
My kindergarten teaching partner and I loved this book. It was a great resource for us and helped encourage our students to draw and write. The children loved drawing the pictures as they followed an instructor's example. They would say, "Look at what I did!" Many of the students hadn't shown previous interest in drawing. They actually suprised themselves with what they could do! One child in particular, who could barely hold a crayon, has been highly motivated by the success he has experienced by doing these simple "do as I do" practices. This was a great discovery!

Helpful writing exercise for a 7-year-old boy Oct 21, 2008
I used this book as a guide to help a 7-year-old boy with his writing. He normally has difficulty thinking of topics to write about. This book has pictures of animals, toys, buildings, and vehicles that sparked his interest. He was able to tap on his own experiences with these subjects and thought of enough information to write down and expand upon.
He thought the drawings were "easy." He was able to embellish the basic drawings with his own details that made them look acceptably "cool." I found the pictures in the book served as interesting writing prompts for this child as well as a basis for his illustrations. Thank you!
