1. Love You Forever

Love You Forever by Robert Munsch

A story of mother’s love; the painting style is warm and full of life, and the sentences are simple, repetitive, and easy to catch; I just disagree with the mother’s practice of rocking forth and back while the child is asleep and then facing the sleeping nine-aged, teen-aged & grown-up boy, shaking in his arms, I really doubt that mother’s affection is unnecessary…

There is such a mother, who has a baby. Her favorite thing to do is hold the baby, shake it, and sing a beautiful song:

I will always love you, love you forever, and you will always be my baby as long as I live.

The boy grew up day by day, from a teenager to a young man until he finally became an adult and moved out of his parent’s house, and his mother’s favorite thing to do all the time was to climb to the head of his bed, make sure he was asleep, pick him up and shake him. Ah, sing that song again until the day she died.

Yes, no matter how old a child is, in the eyes of parents, they will always be the little baby in their arms.

Only this lyric poem is dedicated to all parents and children and the fate and affection between them that last a lifetime.

2. One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish

One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish by Dr. Seuss

“One fish two fish red fish blue fish” Seuss opened this short reading with a sentence from Dr. Seuss that aims to tell everyone that the biggest feature of Dr. Seuss is: to outline the most interesting stories with the most concise words.

This is reflected in his other picture book “Green Eggs and Ham”. The whole picture book does not use more than 50 English words, which will not cause huge dyslexia and pressure for young children.

but the whole story through vivid characters, interesting and changing scene switching, catchy escort essays coupled with a very dramatic storyline, this book is absolutely magical for children! Let the English learning process become simple and happy!

Many parents think that their children like this book, but they don’t. I would like to say that it may be that parents have not yet discovered how simple and rich the child’s world is, like in this book by Dr. Seuss.

The whole book begins with a story about the development of marine creatures to land creatures, and then a variety of different creatures evolved on land.

After that, Dr. Seuss compiled a short rhyme story for each creature. , let children explore and learn about all kinds of strange creatures and their characteristics.

While these creatures don’t necessarily exist in real life, this is where Dr. Seuss’s imagination comes in, creating creatures that look like children’s dream playmates and best friends. Everyone is unique and special.

After playing enough and exploring enough, Dr. Seuss will put the child to sleep. Good night, my little baby, this world is full of all kinds of novel and interesting things, there are today and tomorrow, so look forward to a more colorful tomorrow!

In addition, I want to emphasize that I just want to show this article to parents. For children, attractive stories are king. In the process of storytelling, parents don’t have to force their children to master this.

Master that, and children can find their own pleasure in listening to stories or reading. There are some laws, and we don’t need to sum up various conceptual definitions like adults. I believe that sometimes children’s observation ability will be better than adults.

3. Little Blue Truck

Little Blue Truck by Alice Schertle

Beep! Beep! Meet Blue! Filled with truck sounds and animal noises, Little Blue Truck is a rollicking homage to the power of friendship and the rewards of helping others.

A muddy country road is no match for this little pick-up — that is until he gets stuck while pushing a dump truck out of the muck.

Luckily, Blue has made a pack of farm animal friends along his route. And they’re willing to do whatever it takes to get their pal back on the road.

Little Blue Truck is a joyful cacophony of animal and truck sounds that will have youngsters beeping and quacking — and begging for one more go-round!

Along the way, readers see that it pays to be kind to our animal friends. If we show friendly respect to others, we’re more likely to get help when we’re, say, stuck in the muck in a truck!

4. Skippyjon Jones

Skippyjon Jones by Judy Schachner

Skippyjon Jones is no ordinary kitten. Oh, no. . . .He’s actually El Skippito, a great sword-fighter ready to battle banditos the world over!

With a little imagination and a whole lot of fun, this frisky cat dons a mask and cape and takes on a bad bumble-beeto to save the day. And along the way, he’ll be sure to steal young readers’’ hearts, yes indeed-o!

5. The Giving Tree

The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein

The first time I saw this book, when I was in college, I picked up a book at random in a bookstore: I finished reading the entire thick book in less than 3 minutes and then felt that this book would take a lifetime When I came to read, my thoughts were very long: in it, I thought of her, when I was in love with a girl secretly. She was my classmate in elementary school.

She had a special affection since she was a child. When she was in college, one day, she suddenly found out that she had fallen in love with her, although she didn’t know what love was at that time.

I decided to give her the book and tell her “If she were that little boy, I would be such a tree”. Just to express my true feelings: I believe this should be called love.

Later, I actually gave her the book and told her “If she were that little boy, I would be such a tree”. She said nothing. She also had a boyfriend at the time.

Later, she told me, “She was reading this book in a self-study classroom, and when she read: “As time goes by — -,” she couldn’t help crying.”

In fact, what I want to share is just: “Everyone has some things worth remembering when they grow up, or some feelings worth savoring. These things are very simple and natural. In fact, they have always existed in our hearts, maybe in the busy and busy growth.

In middle school and work, it has gradually been forgotten, and when something touches us, we will suddenly discover how full and warm our hearts are, and these things are the direction and motivation that promotes us to move forward.”

The plot of the story is not beautiful, but the story is beautiful because I found something about my inner quiet world and my original dream.

Thank you for this book, for the story this book brings to me, and for all the people who have touched me in my life. This person may be a relative, a friend, a lover, a classmate, or even someone who doesn’t know his name. stranger.

I believe this book can bring you value. I hope you can truly discover everyone who brings you to love and touch in this world and tell her (him) that you are willing to bring her (him) happiness That Giving tree.

We believe: Gratitude and dedication make the world more beautiful.

6. The Rainbow Fish

The Rainbow Fish by Marcus Pfister

A board book edition of a popular modern classic follows the tale of a beautiful iridescent fish, who suffers a life of loneliness until he decides to share his glittering scales with a catch of new friends.

Children like fish, so I just read this book. I didn’t expect to see a children’s picture book and the sky will be thunder.

In the book, the rainbow fish doesn’t want to pull out the scales and give them to other fish. It’s not a problem at all. Normal fish thinking.

2. It is wrong for other fish to isolate the rainbow fish because it is beautiful. It is a shame to be jealous.

3. A friend bought with profit is not a real friend. A person who wants to harm your own interests to fulfill his vanity is not worthy of being a friend.

If my son reads this book, I will probably teach it like this, but fortunately, he does not know how to read. I read the pictures and made up a story.

This book is probably about sharing, but if it’s too bad, children can’t share without a bottom line.

7. No, David!

No, David! by David Shannon

When I first heard other mothers recommend this book, I was apprehensive. Because I learned that the protagonist of this book is a naughty little boy.

Children are also quite naughty, although I don’t resent that. In fact, on the premise of being safe and not obstructing others, I try to give him freedom as much as possible. I don’t care about climbing up high at home or rolling in the snow in new clothes in winter.

However, if I show him such a picture book, will he learn from the little protagonist to do things that make me even more troublesome? So I have not been tempted to buy this book.

What changed my mind was that one day, I was eating and my son was eating faster than me, washing my hands and getting ready to play with the toys.

While washing, the son was talking about the games he had learned to do. I will answer, very good, you are great!

The son asked, Mom, do you like me?

Although this question is a bit abrupt, I still answer: Mom likes you!

The son ran over, stretched out his hand, and said: Mom, thank you, hug!

I also reached out and hugged him, and I was very puzzled because my son rarely took the initiative to hug me. So I asked in his ear, it’s normal that my mother likes you, why do you seem so strange?

The son was stunned, hesitated for a long time, and replied, “Because I’m more troublesome, I thought you didn’t like me anymore.!

I was also stunned, and quickly answered him: No matter how naughty you are, you are the child of your parents, and we all like you!

At that time, I thought to myself, I should buy a copy of “David, No”. I know that at the end of that book, my mother said to David, “Baby, darling, I love you!”

Although David made many mistakes and his mother reprimanded him again and again, in the end, his mother did not hesitate to convey her love to her children.

How important it is to give your child reassurance of love!
