《太阳》是我的第一本书，通过这本书我们可以教会孩子去认识太阳以及太阳给我们生活带来的精彩斑斓。
本书为中英文互译少儿读物，适合两到十岁的孩子，尤其适用于幼儿园少儿教育，以及年轻爸爸妈妈给宝宝读故事；书本设计独到匠心，封面设计已申请专利，老师或爸爸妈妈在给宝宝面对面读故事的时候，从书本背面就可以清晰看到书本的全部文字及其插图，不需要弯腰或低头看书本里面的内容，这样大大提高了读故事的流畅性，以及更好的与宝宝进行眼神沟通；本书另外一个特色是，书本的插图部分由美国著名画家Rick Phillips亲手作画，书本分为两部分，前半部分是彩色插图及文字，后半部分特别设计了黑白漫画插图，可以供宝宝自由发挥上色，大大提高了宝宝的想象能力。
从第一页开始，我们就可以回答孩子通常会问的问题：“为什么我们在阳光下面睁不开眼睛，为什么有时候我们要挡住阳光？”哈哈，因为阳光能量很大，他很明媚，很耀眼。
第二页呢，更是解答了孩子的疑惑“为什么冰淇淋在阳光下会融化？”，因为太阳也会发出很强的热量。从这本书中，我们还可以教会孩子养成良好的生活习惯，教会他们什么时候起床，什么时候该睡觉了，也让他们知道日出日落的相互交替。
祝福宝宝从书中学到大自然的知识，热爱生活，健康快乐的成长。

A crucial factor in a child’s early development involves being read to on a regular basis. As most experts would agree, regularly reading to a child can form a close bond between the child and their parents, carrying them both to delightful worlds of fantasy and wonder. Although reading provides stimulating entertainment, it is also beneficial to a child’s educational development. Expanding a child’s vocabulary and improving their socialization skills, regularly reading to a child can help them immeasurably to thrive in society.
While the benefits of reading to a child have never been disputed, reading to a group of children presents some challenges. Specifically, many parents, caregivers, and teachers find that a child’s curiosity often distracts from the story being read. Eager to see the colorful illustrations that adorn each page, most small children can hardly wait until the reader has finished the sentence or page, before wanting to take a peak at the pictures that accompany the text. Continuously stopping between lines and pages, in order to flip the book around and show the curious eyes of the audience the colorful illustrations, many teachers and parents find that getting through a story can be a somewhat frustrating experience.
Recognizing the need for a children’s story book that can be easily read and shared with children, Mr. Tyren Scott Thomas has developed a unique series of children’s books he has aptly designated “readables”. Developed by an experienced and caring teacher, readables are a line of delightful and interesting books, each consisting of seven to fifteen pages of text and illustrations that depict the particular text.
Readables are a practical tool which would offer parents and teachers an easy means of sharing charming stories with children. Readables will be well enjoyed by any parent, teacher, and child.
