Early Literacy Poster Sets
Our colorful, lively posters will brighten any room where parents of young children gather -- a waiting room, clinic classroom, library, or family resource center.
Each poster presents one stand-alone Parent Note from the Rock-A-Bye Baby Reader for special emphasis. The poster illustrations remind parents of various well-loved nursery rhymes that are so useful and fun to read to babies. Photos of real parents reading to their children create the expectation that reading aloud is a family activity.
Each poster is matte-laminated to protect it and to reduce glare from overhead lights. The measurements are 11"x17". As such, they're useful in small spaces, or can be arranged as a four-square mosaic or even as a 68" border, whatever your space allows.
Currently, the posters are available in English only. Please contact us if your program would like to be alerted when a Spanish set is available.

Photo-casting call:
Families with 0-3 yr-olds to model reading aloud for our new Somali Family Reader...
TWB is completing our Somali Family Reader over the summer here in Minneapolis. Please contact us if you know of a young family that would like to model reading aloud for that book. Any family members can participate: moms, dads*, grandparents, sisters, sisters, aunts, or uncles with their 0-3 year-olds.
*TWB loves to have dads show off their read-aloud technique.
Photo shoots are ~20 minutes, and can be held at a nearby library, school, park, home, etc. While we welcome Somali-American families, our goal is to show all families reading to young children. So, any family is welcome and invited to participate in the fun!!
The photo session is enjoyable and casual -- plus, you'll receive your own copy of the
finished board book at TWB's Publishing Party for all participants. It's a fun way for your family to make a positive difference (and become very
famous)!
Please call Cheryl (612-990-6011) for more information.
My group is considering custom Baby Readers as a part of a new initiative...
While your organization is in the planning stages, we can work with you to create a mock-up custom cover. You'll have a draft custom version so colleagues have something tangible to consider during your presentation. Contact Cheryl for more information: 612-990-6011.
Preparing for an Early Learning committee meeting?
We can send you sample copies of our Baby and/or Toddler Readers. As you discuss your community's first outreach to new parents, colleagues may review the nursery
rhymes, photos and Parent Notes.
