Kids' Book Banter
Imaginations are sparked, empathy is nurtured, and critical thinking is stimulated when kids read and talk about books.
​
The Kids’ Book Banter bookmark helps to foster engaging conversations between adult and child, providing a peek into a child’s thinking about the books they read.
These handy conversation guides are also a great way to get kids talking about books together, whether it is with parents, in a classroom or in a kids’ book club.
​
Suggested for ages 4-12, the Kids' Book Banter bookmark comes in four fun prints.
​
Spark kids' love of reading by having kids banter about books!
