Little children love being read to. They listen intently and with great excitement to the stories. You can almost see how they process the tales in their minds. You may have noticed that young children especially love stories from our everyday lives and want to hear them again and again. It's no wonder: For little kids, the ordinary daily life is still a puzzle filled with many questions they want to solve and understand. In our Lotta books, we don't take them to fantastic worlds; instead, we recount everyday experiences of toddlers. Because our experience shows: The books help little ones understand their own lives, categorize their own experiences, and ask many questions. Through shared storytelling about everyday stories, we playfully expand their world of experiences.
