Before starting the activities in I Love Words, readers are prompted to write and sign their name on the first page… and indicate if they are a boy, a girl, or a giant hamster!
After gathering a pencil, an eraser, and a pair of scissors, they can then start any of the word activities in this book. Crafted of sturdy white paper, each page encourages interaction with letters and words.
When this book is finished, it will be filled with original writings, drawings and cut-outs. Inside will be a page of letter cartoons, a mobile filled with light and airy words, and a cake decorated with the reader’s favorite words.
Syllables will be counted on one page, and new vocabulary words will be defined on another. Creativity will be expressed in constructing new bookmarks, word boxes, and the world’s smallest bookstore.
Neon orange highlights, child-like sketches, and easy-to-follow directions make this book fun, not intimidating. First published in France in 2009, I Love Words celebrates language arts with a mix of silly and creative ideas.
