This book is for children from 3-8.

For children from 3-8 these word dances offer:
  • A fun and effortless way to learn the alphabet and how words are formed by letters
  • An immediate, kinesthetic understanding of letters and words
  • Physical coordination and cognitive development
  • Literacy Enhancement: Words have meaning when the words and movement merge.
  • Introduction to images/metaphors
  • Aesthetic appreciation of literature and joy of reading

The book and series are inspired by the research developed by developmental biologist, Charles Piaget who said, "The young child attributes life to activity and this activity facilitates his thinking ability and learning. The child then begins to be aware that movement is the essence of things around him, and he discovers himself through movement...he begins to think as he moves. The child then is developing not only through the psychomotor domain, but also through the affective and cognitive domain.
