The "We Both Read" series from Treasure Bay offers hardcover books specifically designed to help parents encourage their children to read. Each title invites parents and children to share the reading of a story by taking turns reading aloud. Parents read the more complex text on the left-hand pages and children read the right-hand pages which have been written at one of five early reading levels, each title was developed with reading education specialists and are intrinsically entertaining and engaging for young minds. To become introduced to this innovative, outstanding, unique, and highly recommended series, consider Lulu's Lost Shoes (1891327550, $7.99) written by Paul Blankeship and illustrated by Larry Reinhart and tells the story of a ladybug who is late for the school bus because she can't find her shoes! and About Dinosaurs (1891327-534, $7.99) written by dinosaur specialist Sindy McKay, illustrated by paleo-artist Robert Walters, and is the story of several species of ancient creatures and why the dinosaurs went extinct (except for those that evolved into birds).
