The classic fantasy trilogy of Elmer Elevator and the flying baby dragon has delighted children and their parents for generations. Now, on the occasion of their fiftieth anniversary, Random House is proud to bring the three timeless tales together in one beautiful commemorative edition, complete with the original delightful illustrations. A Newbery Honor Book and an ALA Notable Book, My Father's Dragon is followed by Elmer and the Dragon (\"rich, humorous, and thoroughly satisfying\"*) and The Dragons of Blueland (\"ingenious and plausible, the fantasy well-sustained\"*). Each story stands alone, but read in succession, they are an unforgettable experience.*Library Journal, starred review

Another dragon book: ‘The Reluctant Dragon’ by Kenneth Grahame.Short and sweet. He also wrote ‘The Wind in the Willows’. My 7-1/2-year-old enjoyed it very much.

Hi kiasu parents I'm new around here. Just got feedback from my kid's nursery teacher that my daughter doesn't really like paper worksheets and books, preferring the iPad and computer. This is because we've always used the iPad as a \"nanny\" when we're out so that she'll sit still or keep quiet. She's turning three this week and can't confidently recognize all the alphabets. My wife is studying at the moment and my work requires me to travel alot so I try my best to teach her whenever I can or to the limit my patience lets me. Shes attending nursery (full-day) and I'd like to
supplement it with a reading class for her. Does anyone know of such a centre to recommend in the Marine Parade area? Thanks in advance! -
There’s a great book, “Always wear clean underwear!” written by Marc Gellman. It is a wonderful resource for parents to read with kids and to instill values in them. I used some stories from the book during the Orientation Week when I was teaching in my ex-school. When I first saw this book, the title caught my attention. It is written in a conversational, easy to understand and humourous manner. Even my upper primary kids loved the stories. An AWESOME read!

Thanks for that reply! Always great to hear from a teacher! My teacher friends have encouraged me to spend more time reading with my daughter. Not so much to coach her but to instil a love for reading, which is the primary source of knowledge. I’ll look out for that title! Interesting title though;)
