#TLPPitch #C "Look what I can do!" When a child discovers what their body can do, and how children with disabilities or from other cultures use their body parts, a child’s self-esteem is strengthened. A playful rhyming scheme and poetic devices bolster a child’s reading skills.

#TLPPitch #L #R Set against a portrait of rural farm life, children befriend a lonely, broken scarecrow in the autumn of its life, and joyfully tend to its needs through the changing seasons. Its gentle storytelling highlights the joy of helping others. #TLPPITCH #PB #R #L
