Now that summer is upon us, you may be planning a family vacation. Woolworth Lamb and Hopper Frog will talk to your child about vacations they've been on or ones they'd like to go on and Miss Becky will be reading two books about some unexpected happenings on some well planned out vacations. Not all vacations turn out the way they were planned and in these stories Arthur's family and the Berenstain Bears discover it's possible to make the best out of a bad situation with a little cooperation, imagination, patience, and positivity.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I have been an instructional aide in an all-day kindergarten class for the past 13 years and the best part of my job is reading to the students. Studies have shown reading aloud to children improves listening skills, helps in language development, expands vocabulary, increases attention span, inspires creativity, encourages a love of reading, teaches life lessons, helps with social and emotional development, and actually raises a child's I.Q. by over six points! It's also a fun way to introduce phonics and the alphabet to preschoolers.
With a background in theater, I don't just read words to children, I entertain them as well. Using different voices for characters, and facial expressions to emphasize points, I've often looked out over a sea of young faces to see them more engaged in watching me than they are in looking at the story's pictures.
I realize finding time to read to your child can be a challenge so why not let me read to them and keep them entertained as well? It is my hope that my story time will help you as much as it will your child.
I am the mother of three adult boys and the grandmother of one 10-year-old boy. To this day, my sons tell me some of their best growing-up memories are of me reading to them. How wonderful it would be to have your child think the same thing when they're grown. Imagine hearing them say, "I remember listening to stories a silly old lady would read to me over the computer. That was so fun!"
