Do not train children to learning by force and harshness, but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.

The Color of Us
This is a new favorite of mine. The Color of Us by Karen Katz is a great book that I just fell in love with after reading it. Karen Katz puts a cute spin on race and ethnicity. I love the fact that my three year olds can understand this story.
I have never read this book but it sounds like it is a great book. If three year olds can understand a story about race then it is a book that I have to get.
This book sounds like it is really good. I am going to look for it. I love cultural books for the preschoolers!
ReplyDeleteI love this book also. I read this book in my pre-k class. I believe it is a great reading as we discusse how we all look different. it really helps.
