Ahh… reading. It is one of the great joys in life. Seriously, whether for pleasure or education or both, reading is a fantastic skill that allows you to do so many things. My kids love reading. I have a 10 year old daughter and and an 8 year old son and they can both be found reading in their spare time. People ask me all the time what I did to make my kids love reading and I tell them, that I read to them and I have them read to me. Before my kids could talk, I read them board books pointing at the pictures and saying the words or longer books with fun rhymes. When they were old enough, we took turns each reading a page. They understood that reading is something fun we do together. The best way to start a child out with a love of books is to have books available to them. That is why I am so excited to bring you this amazing young reader books giveaway that is sponsored by Kingfisher Children’s Books.
Tony Mitton and Ant Parker Young Reader Books
First, exactly what are young readers books? Well, Young Reader books can be classified as Ages 4 to 8 years. First there are board books with fewer word then it steps up to short books with a lower word count and lots of illustrations.
Tony Mitton and Ant Parker have a huge collection of young reader books. This charming author and illustrator duo has created some very popular and beloved non-fiction young reader books. Featuring some of the most amazing machines and animals around, their engaging and enchanting books are perfect for every young reader’s bookshelf.
Amazing Machines First Concepts Books by Tony Mitton
These are board books which focus on introducing a concept such as colors, opposites, numbers, and sounds with fun illustrations. These books are perfect from baby to about 3 years old.
These board books will have your child engaged in concepts in no time. Numbers are brought to life with colorful illustrations of machines like 2 bulldozers and 3 fire engines. It is a perfect way for young children to learn all about numbers in a colorful and engaging way!
Sounds are brought to life with illustrations of things making funny sounds like “glug, glug” or “zoom, zoom.” Kids love funny noises so this is sure to engage even those that are book shy.

These critically acclaimed picture books are full of fun rhyming text and bright artwork to engage children as they learn about machines.

Amazing Animals Young Reader Books In Paperback
This book series is all about adventures with animals in exotic settings. Your kids will love learning about unusual animals like giant armadillo, stinky skunks, and awesome angler fish. Animal enthusiast are sure to enjoy reading these books over and over as they encounter wild animals in their natural habitats! My daughter read “Rainforest Adventure” before school this morning.
She enjoyed the fun rhyming-
“The tapir is a mammal. It’s hoofed and rather stout. It sniffs for tasty plant life with its clever, stretchy snout.”
I love that it uses words that will expand your child’s vocabulary.
She also loved the last page which engaged her even more and and sent her rummaging back through all the pages to find each animal!
