“Spirit of Thanks” by Leighton Hollar, Introduces the Value of Gratitude and Learning

Curiosity is a strong tool for learning, and children are inherently interested in the world around them. Children who are encouraged to acquire new knowledge at a young age have an edge throughout their academic careers according to studies; reading and comprehension are critical components in this process. Therefore, it is important for parents and early childhood educators to support a child’s learning with new and exciting, child centered, reading materials. Furthermore, the best way to stimulate understanding is to enable the child to translate what they understand into illustrations, narratives and actions, as in role playing.
 
Leighton Hollar, an award-winning poet, shares material that will help parents and educators build a strong foundation for early childhood learning. Furthermore, he inculcates the value of gratitude to children, which gives a holistic facet that will develop this intelligence and emotional quotients in children. These values Hollar presents in his book, “Spirit of Thanks.”
 
Children are introduced to gratitude-themed holidays in the “Spirit of Thanks.” Hollar created a unique rhyming scheme for the book that is both entertaining and easy to understand for children. He also included bright images and illustrations to help keep a child’s attention while also emphasizing the message.
 
Hollar, throughout his career, had won multiple awards at poetry symposiums and from small press magazines. Some of these awards include Creative Arts and Science Enterprises’ Accomplishment of Merit Award ’93, Poetic Eloquence‘s Readers’ Choice Awards ’95, Poet’s Corner Magazine’s, Distinguish Member Award ’97, Famous Poets Society Certificate of Recognition 2002.
