Enhance your child's imagination and education in 15 minutes a day! In 15-minute intervals, Cay Gibson does for reading what Rachael Ray does for cooking. She makes it a joyful feast for everyone. Gibson makes reading manageable for busy parents, the over-scheduled child, the reluctant reader, the teenager who has all but given up on reading (much less making sense of Shakespeare), and all other walks of life who claim they don't have time to read in our fast-paced, technological world. Cay believes that picture books make an excellent catalyst for transporting our children into areas of study they would not normally be interested in. A Picture Perfect Childhood is a tempting photo album of picture books that can be used to enhance the child's imagination, comprehension, and desire for learning...as well as the adult's...and it only takes 15 minutes a day!
