Sometimes we all just need a little quiet. Without the frustration of trying to read words which we may not be ready for yet. To let our imaginations take us where they want to go; not only the prescribed place that text points us. Wordless books can bring out the creativity in children and have their place alongside books with text. This week’s What to Read Wednesday theme is Wordless Books. You’ll certainly recognise The Snowman, as it’s been made into a wordless movie; which is really unique. But there are many other wordless books out there. Have a look through them and see what might appeal to your children. Open up a whole new world of possibilities without the tensions of reading from a book!

My boys ADORE Quest. They were stumped at first with a wordless picture book but were thrilled when they didn’t have to read.

They are an unexpected genre for many children, and sometimes just what they need to get them over a fear of books.
