Amy Vetrone Shares Her Mom, Son, Sammy Rabbit Story
Inspiring young kids to write (or read) is not always easy!
But that is one of many amazing things that can result when you read or give your child a Sammy story book.
One reason why it may be more likely to happen with Sammy is because his story books include activities that ask kids to write, draw, set goals and more. His story books also invite kids to have additional learning and literacy experiences by re-reading and coloring a special story activity book or downloading FREE activities at the DreamBigClub.org
So, when Wisconsin mother Amy Vetrone sent us an email sharing the information below it was extremely gratifying but not totally surprising.
"...your books continue to inspire my son to become a book writer. Here is a picture of his amazing drawing skills..."
Yes, over the last 20 years other parents have shared similar sentiments. That is what makes this type of feedback so rewarding. The intended impact on kids and families is becoming more and more predictable
