Poetry Helps. Just begin. Start Early.
This book is for young children who can read, or be read out to. It has been written in very simple words in a storytelling manner, so it is fun.
Poetry is Word Economy. In this book, children learn the power of expression by using few words. Not a single word is wasted. Each word is important.
Reading poetry improves our vocabulary and memory. Poetry improves critical thinking because it forces a reader to think and analyze. This analytical thinking develops the creative part of our brains. These creative thinking skills give us greater control over our language and communication. The reader connects with the poet by visualizing the rationale of the poet’s emotions and thoughts, thus developing empathy and insight.
Some of the poems in this book are like the modern day Panchatantra or Amar Chitra Katha of poems – they teach important life lessons subtly without sounding like someone is asking them to do something which could put them off. Poems like Mobile Phones or the Internet, which talk about why one should not use too much of it, or the poem Books, where one understands the importance of reading, teaches the child about topics that the parents have time and again tried to talk to their children about. Each poem has a colourful illustration made by a 12 year old, so it leaves a powerful impact on the child.
Go ahead. Gift this book to your child or any child you know. It’s different.
