Spots the Cow Gets a Makeover!






We all know Spots the Cow loves herself, especially with all of her spots,

That turmoil was real for Ira, and children realize its normal to be afraid of new experiences, and it is also okay to have a comfort item to help them. Reading books, the child can relate to the characters on some level. Now pair that with a trusted adult reading it to them. An adult who the child can connect with daily, consistently over a book. How can the child or the adult feel alone?  Mem Fox explains it this way:  The fire of literacy is created by the  emotional sparks between a child, a book, and the person reading .
