Celebrate the Unique Gift of Reading with a Child

Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis once said, “There are many little ways to enlarge your child’s world. Love of books is the best of all.” 

We couldn’t agree more. Helping a youngster learn to read gives the child a unique gift that will bring pleasure and rewards for a lifetime. Today is Young Readers Day, a special day to recognize the joys and benefits of reading. It’s a day to think about the children in your life and how you can share with them your love of books. A great way to introduce a child to reading is with a personalized book that includes his or her name.

With the holidays coming, no child could
resist Santa’s Personalized Christmas Book. This personalized heirloom story book traces the journey of a child’s letter as it travels to the North Pole and recounts Santa’s delivery of presents on Christmas morning. Told from Santa’s point-of-view, your child’s first name appears on all 10 spreads both in the book’s four-lined rhyming verse and across 10 hand-painted illustrations.

This collection of classic fairy tales is personalized with a child’s name throughout its pages. The book’s 12 fables are illustrated in a variety of whimsical styles, with the child’s first name incorporated into more than 60 images, and at least once on each pair of facing pages. The book’s timeless classics include Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk and the Three Little Pigs. 

For the smallest future readers, this book of traditional English nursery rhymes includes 26 favorites such as Little Miss Muffet, Sing A Song of Sixpence, and Humpty Dumpty. The child’s name appears throughout the pages, on the iconic egg-man’s wall on one page while it marks the king’s pie pan in another. This truly is the perfect unique gift for a child’s birth, baptism, or first birthday.

While technology may be changing how we read, one thing will never change: reading every day makes life a little better. Celebrate that with a child today.
