How to Enjoy Reading Aloud to Young Children, A parent booklet

How to ENJOY READING ALOUD to Young Children
Edmund Pegge and Alison Shakspeare
A DIFFERENT kind of booklet for parents, How to ENJOY READING ALOUD to Young Children is about HOW to read with expression and confidence, making sharing stories with children much more rewarding and enjoyable - for both adult and child.
How to ENJOY READING ALOUD to Young Children is full of easy to follow techniques and advice using short extracts from well-loved children's stories, such as Giraffes Don't Dance, We're Going on a Bear Hunt, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Thomas the Tank Engine. The colourful Voice Coach takes the reader through sections dealing with making noises, doing voices, showing feelings and being scary.
The skills learned and the confidence gained from using How to ENJOY READING ALOUD to Young Children, offer a solid foundation for making sharing books a daily pleasure for adults and children.
The techniques illustrated are distilled from Edmund Pegge's resource for teachers 'Expressive Speech', based on his experience as a stage and screen actor and the regular poetry and creative writing workshops he runs in the UK and Australia.
Free notes are provided (click here to download), with suggestions about running a workshop for parents, after which you could send them away with a copy of How to ENJOY READING ALOUD to Young Children. The price per booklet can be little more than $3 per copy.
