Brother John

Whether you have a big brother or a little brother, brothers are lots of fun; and that is exactly why Penelope Dyan wrote this book to remind those of us who have brothers exactly how we feel about them.

Use this 'learn to read' book written and illustrated by award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan, to practice reading skills through word recognition, and word repetition and rhyme, and then begin a discussion about what it really means to be a family, because a family is more than just a bunch of people. A family is where love is and where love grows!

Written for Penelope Dyan's very own brother, see if you can figure out why she wrote this book and whether what she says about her brother is true or false; and then sit down and write something about your brother or sister so you can tell them how you feel about them. Maybe you can even make a book of your own!

Then watch the music video that goes with this book on the Bellissimavideo YouTube channel for even more learning fun!
