I Like Birthdays! stimulates your child's creativity and interest in reading and writing. After a birthday celebration, you and your child can relive the fun by recording the number of candles on the cake, the friends and family there, the special food and clothing, and the favorite presents in your child's own words, drawings, and photographs. The book provides sentence starters that children finish with words describing their personal experiences. They then paste photos or draw pictures to illustrate their stories. Parents or grandparents can help children complete their one-of-a-kind book for a wonderful shared activity.

Working on this Interactive Book about Me helps young and beginning readers (ages 2-8) improve their vocabulary, reading, and writing skills. I Like Birthdays! also helps children recognize the use of numbers and mathematics in everyday life, describe emotions, and understand social relationships.

This activity book will bring repeated enjoyment and skill development as your child shares reading the book aloud with you, family members, and friends. And, when your child's reading progresses beyond the level of this book, you will have a unique keepsake of a special event from his or her growing years!

Educators

One of the keys to learning to read is motivation. This interactive book, in which the child provides the text and the important images, creates that motivation. It also requires children to think critically, recall and reflect on their experiences, and then recount them in writing - all helpful in developing language skills. Great for all beginning readers and writers, including English language learners and students identified for Title I or special education programs. This book is one in a series of interactive books, including; My Trip to the Zoo, Visiting My Grandmother, and I Like Holidays! All four titles have won the National Parenting Center's Seal of Approval, The Mom's Choice Award, and the Teacher's Choice Award for the Family.
