WHERE? WHERE IS IT?
LET’S FIND... THE MOUTH!
ABOUT THE BOOK
This picture book not only teaches the names of different parts of the body, but also provides the reader with a unique textual and visual reading. After all, in each portrait, the look, the smile, the movement of the lips and the hair reveal a special moment of the child portrayed, a stimulus for babies and young children to develop the ability to recognize human faces and the emotions they reveal. Facial recognition is the basis for forming emotional bonds and developing important social and cognitive skills. Empathy and humor were the elements for the construction of the narratives presented here, a very special invitation to connect with books and reading, promoting a fun literary immersion experience for the whole family.
ABOUT THE AUTHOR
My name is Aloma and I am an author, editor and translator of children’s books, especially baby books. I love picture books that show people from different cultures and races, so I decided to create this fun book full of faces and grimaces. I think readers of all ages will enjoy the children in the photos and the short text full of questions that make reading even more curious. My work has already been recognized by Brazil’s Ministry of Education, by the UNESCO Chair Seal and by the UN 2030 Agenda SDG Reading Club Library. I like books with simple texts and word games that delight babies and young children, guaranteeing a pleasant literary experience and promoting the actions of the UNESCO Global Literacy Alliance for family reading.
