Humor abounds and so does amusement. There are many rebus books available. Some are retellings of familiar tales. Other children will love to see a familiar tale translated in this way. They employ a flap technique to give a child both pictograph and word.
Rebus books allow a child to take an active role in the process.
A child may begin by following the pictures and then later turn to following the words. There are now fabulous narratives by celebrities with rich voices and magical musical accompaniment. A young toddler and a starting-reader sibling is a match made in heaven for some of the best initial texts are baby board books. Hopefully you've kept early pre-school books which have large print, few words per page, and bright colors. The patterned structure that once made your toddler secure will provide a nice assurance for your uncertain reader.
