This second, and more importantly, expanded edition has an added interactive section that includes activities to extend the learning. Listeners and readers alike can engage in more communication to drive home the message of caring love and personal safety. There are new pages to color and great questions to urge children to focus about what the story is trying to tell them...and well, just plain fun! It contains the full original story of course, but it's packed with more to keep young minds listening, thinking, coloring, and asking and learning the answers to those questions. It's a perfect resource for classrooms, groups, and belongs on the desk of every child advocate.
Kathy J. Picard has a strong standing in the community of child advocacy against sexual abuse and knows first hand how that trauma impacts young lives. She is strongly endorsed by national, state, and local organizations---many of whom offer her publishing company's resources for children, parents, educators, schools, and day care facilities, on their websites. We hope you find the expanded edition of I Love You So Much That...well worth owning and recommending to help us all protect our most important resource: our children.
Baby Bear leads the way by questioning everything about every area of every the day---like any young child. What's wonderful about this story is that the answers stem from one common reason for those requests. it's a request from a caring adult to teach a young child about personal safety, setting boundaries, and taking care of and responsibility for their actions. Indeed, those pesky requests are made out of love.
So get your crayons out and put your thinking caps on, and dive into I Love You So Much That...a little deeper. We think you'll agree it's a wonderful tool for helping to teach children to be aware of everyday challenges that might impact their health, well-being, and personal safety.
