For Mom, a new purse is always a very big treat. Why? Because everyone knows that mothers seem to have very little time to actually shop for themselves. However, this is not a story about time. This is a story about one mom buying something new and then buying something else. What do you think Papa will say when Mama returns home after her big shopping trip? What happens in your house when your mother comes home from a big shopping trip with bags full of clothes and things? This not so serious book by award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan, takes a humorous look at the idea of shopping as it uses some well researched teaching techniques to enhance reading vocabulary and skills. Look for repetition of words and the use of rhyme to guess what is coming next, and use the kid friendly Penelope Dyan drawings to help you as you move along, reading through this very funny book. Dyan believes learning should be fun, so also look for her music video, "A New Bag," on the Bellissimavideo YouTube Channel to enhance the total learning process. Sing, dance, have fun and learn and use everything in your own special bag of learning tools to learn all you can learn and to be all that you can be!
