Teachers: Your Book Report is Due
Publisher offers free children’s book to Kindergarten teachers.
Calabasas, CA (PRWEB via PR Web
Direct) January 26, 2005 -- Snyder-Winston Press, publisher of the
children’s picture book, "The Adventures of Midas and the Little Red Airplane,"
is offering a free book to teachers of Kindergarten classes in exchange for a
“book report” of the book. While supplies last, teachers can sign up to receive
the free Midas book at www.MidasKids.com. Teachers are encouraged to read the book to
their class, print out coloring pages from the website, play games with the kids
online, and then fill out a quick report describing what the teacher and class
thought about the book.
“It’s just a way of having a little fun in class
and introduce Midas and his friends to the kids,” said the author “Uncle Ted”
Afetian, who originally wrote the story for his nephew. “Afterwards, the
teachers can pass the book along to other classes or give it to the school
librarian.”
Early feedback provided by teachers report how the children
enthusiastically respond to the brilliant illustrations and listen carefully
throughout the reading. “The kids immediately fall in love with Midas and all of
the characters,” said Uncle Ted. “They yell and cheer along with Midas during
the story. The teachers like the subject matter of helping a friend in need and
never giving up.”
The first book in the Midas Series, "The Adventures of
Midas and the Little Red Airplane" is about a golden retriever named Midas who
helps a little red airplane find his way back home to the airport. The adventure
helps children understand about problem solving, positive reinforcement, and
most importantly, about never giving up.
Supplies are limited on a first
come, first serve basis. Instructions and rules are listed on the website at www.MidasKids.com at the
“Teachers: Your Book Report Is Due!” link. "The Adventures of Midas and the
Little Red Airplane," ISBN: 0975274902, retails for $16.95 and is available at
Amazon.com and participating Borders and Barnes & Noble Bookstores.
