Description
For parents, grandparents, teachers and othersLike The Seed, each child, sooner or later, will wonder what he or she shall grow up to be. This book broaches that question and allows not only the reader but parents, grandparents, teachers and others to assist children with this very important question.To aid in the value of the book's content, and to allow an additional teaching experience, this book is also available as a computer presentation. These programs offer several additional advantages such as:* Unlike requiring a child or children to sit by the reader to see a book and its illustrations, the reader may elect to read the article from a computer. The book's optional presentations could even be linked to available media projection for classroom and other use.* Today's computer savvy children could also watch or read the story by themselves with relative ease and at their own initiative. Also use of the presentation format allows children to add to or change the book as their creative minds suggest. For instance, after reading the story, an 11 year old girl in our family wrote a song about The Seed. Other possibilities are:* While most children books are written with the main character a male, this book is intentionally gender neutral. Thus the child reader could make the Seed a "He" or " She," and/or give the Seed a name.* The reader could creatively change the story.* Illustrations could be changed. They could also be animated allowing some art work to be programmed to appear when the reader "clicks" after or before reading a page.For a complimentary computer based copy of THE SEED see the following website: www.thebooktheseed.com. On that website you can select your desired format. You will be asked to confirm that you have purchased The Seed and where as well as pledge that you will not further distribute the presentation(s) without permission.
