Touch the Brightest Star Review: Best book for very young children that I've read in a long time! - This book is absollutely wonderful. When I first started reading it, I had no idea how the book would grow and evolve and I was just pleasantly surprised at how it flowed into such a happy, comforting ending. Every page was a discovery. Enchanting little folk art illustrations. Great "little kid" vocabulary. Well thought out design. When you get to the end, you could easily see how a youg child would want to have it read to them every night before bed. But there is also a deeper value that this book has that must be mentioned and that is how it offers a valuable contribution to literacy. I realize that it is not hard to read a book aloud to young children. But, it is rather difficult to learn to become an entrancing story teller to young children. Especially itty bitty children! Many young parents try to engage their children through reading aloud, but it takes just a bit of practice and skills to hold their attention, encourage that all important interactive exchange and feel like you have changed the world that you and the young child live in because of that shared eperience of reading a selected book. (sorry about the length of that sentence!) This book just provides a natural format for successful interaction while reading and ensures a happy, satisfying ending. It is difficult not to let out a happy sigh when you see the final illustration and read the last words! The illustrations provide just enough drama for a very young child that after a few repetitions of nightly reads that they might blurt out their predictions of upcoming events in the book. These are the little things that occur during reading that make the parent feel successful as a parent who reads to their children because you can see that it makes a difference in the child. Reading aloud to children should be an insanely happy experience! This book is the unique type of interactive book where the story finds the parent and helps the parent grow as a reader to their young child. The parent and the child grow into a family that reads aloud. The child's literacy blossoms and learning is a joy. The parent becomes a story teller. Life doesn't get much better than that. Other than that . . .it was a charming story. ;-). Mrs. L. Review: A. Beautiful Book - My 2year old grandson loves this book. It’s a beautiful book that is interactive. I highly recommend it. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #76,439 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #62 in Children's Recycling & Green Living Books #186 in Children's Environment Books (Books) #662 in Children's Interactive Adventures | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (487) | | Dimensions | 7 x 0.9 x 6.9 inches | | Edition | Brdbk | | Grade level | Preschool - 3 | | ISBN-10 | 0062274481 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0062274489 | | Item Weight | 2.31 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 42 pages | | Publication date | January 31, 2017 | | Publisher | Greenwillow Books | | Reading age | 1 - 3 years, from customers | ## Images ![Touch the Brightest Star - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71dXA28YiuL.jpg) ![Touch the Brightest Star - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91SSpwGrFXS.jpg) ![Touch the Brightest Star - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51pf+dJs3rL.jpg) ![Touch the Brightest Star - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81daLWUqxhL.jpg) ![Touch the Brightest Star - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81op7M5fB6L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best book for very young children that I've read in a long time! *by G***H on July 27, 2015* This book is absollutely wonderful.

I really enjoyed this gal's style of writing books so much so that I have now purchased every single one she makes.
