Description
At a certain age, children become very curious and they start asking "Why?" When a parent (teacher, educator, grandparent) responds with an answer, these inquisitive children will often respond with another "Why?" The Question Is Why? Why? Why? was inspired by the author’s son, Bradley. There are 26 different questions and answers, each corresponding to a letter of the alphabet, as well as a surprise bonus question at the end of this educational and fun children’s book. There is also a list of additional activities parents and educators can do with children to inspire inquiring minds as well as a list of related children’s books to explore. Praise for THE QUESTION IS WHY? "The Question is Why? incorporates both creative questioning and an innovative take on learning the alphabet. It will make a great addition to any pre-K or K-3 classroom library!" —Kaitlin Roig-DeBellis, author, CHOOSING HOPE, Executive Director, www.classes4classes.org, and speaker "This must-read children's book makes learning fun with discussion-provoking questions and beautiful illustrations.

Bernstein, parent and author, DOODLES LANHORN AND THE QUEST TO SAVE INNER EARTH "An engaging way to teach children the alphabet and the value of asking questions." — Joyce Guy Patton, elementary school teacher and principal (retired)
