Why picture books?
Picture books cover a diverse range of topics and expose children to words and language they might not hear normally in conversation. Wordless picture books allow children to use their imagination and make up their own story.
These picture books were designed to accompany the LanguageLift program. However, children will also enjoy the books separately.
