The Role of Poetry in Child Development

Poetry is essential for children because it can provide them with special intellectual benefits.  When children hear poems being read aloud to them, or when they read the poems themselves, their use of language is widened and enlarged.  When you read Patricia Herber’s book, “Butterflies, Bears, and Other Poems for Children,” this is certainly true!  You will find your child’s vocabulary increasing tremendously as he/she learns to identify the rhyming pairs of words in her clever poems.  Soon, the children will be able to suggest more rhymes of their own.  They will feel as if they have just discovered some fun-filled new game, and they will want more of it!
 
Patricia’s book uses catchy rhymes to teach children an integral life lesson (learning how to read).  She believes that the concept of rhyming is an important skill that can be a fun way to help children learn to read.  Her poems include concepts that will shape children’s minds, help them to understand new text, enhance their speech, and help them to learn to use context clues to comprehend the poems. The 32 adorable poems are truly enjoyable and interesting, often with references to nature and holidays.  Her very colorful and amusing illustrations which she has drawn add to the lessons that are taught in a fun and creative way, and will surely capture any child’s attention.
 
Patricia Herber’s “Butterflies, Bears, and Other Poems for Children” will definitely help your child develop and engage in smart reading habits that will benefit him/her for life!  If you want your child to become a good reader, why not order a copy for a child you love today . . . you will be glad you did!  Adults will find that they are enjoying the book as well.  Happy reading!

About the Author
Patricia Herber: “When I was growing up as the middle child in a family of 8 children, my childhood memories included Mother Goose Rhymes which were popular at that time, and we merrily jumped rope to chants that rhymed. Fast forward to present day, and I am now the author of a rhyming poetry book for children!”
