Clean It!/A Limpiar (Helping Hands

Helping Hands

by Georgie Birkett

Children love to imitate adult behavior. Helping with real tasks is a natural progression from pretend play, and is a crucial stage in a child's development. Achieving a shared goal encourages a sense of responsibility and develops many skills useful in later life. Encourage your child to help out and develop new skills as they share in the fun of more grown up activities. Simple conversational text and lively illustrations are carefully designed to initiate dialog between reader and child.

About the author

I live and work in the beautiful hilly town of Lewes, near Brighton with my husband, two sons and two cats. I have made lots of children’s books, working with many publishers including PenguinRandomHouse, Macmillan and Bloomsbury. Making children's books is the best job ever and so fun, I knew this would be my job even when I was in primary school!

The pictures are colorful and the families are multi-ethnic, with all skin colors represented as friends, spouses, grandparents, children, shopkeepers, etc. Read more ....
