<p style="margin-bottom: 0pt; padding-bottom: 0pt;"><a href="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/EM_logo.gif"><img class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-3851" title="EM_logo" src="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/EM_logo-150x120.gif" alt="EM_logo" width="150" height="120" /></a>&#8220;<strong><em>Early Moments</em></strong><em> may be a new name to you, but we’ve been publishing children’s book clubs for more than 45 years. We’re proud to support some of America’s most prestigious brands, including </em><strong><em>Dr. Seuss™</em></strong><em>,</em><strong><em> Disney</em></strong><em>, and </em><strong><em>Baby Einstein</em></strong><em>®.<br />
Our parent company, which is headquartered in Norway, was founded in 1965 by a young journalist who was looking for guidance in caring for his newborn. He brought together child development experts and published a guide entitled Spesbarnsboken, which he gave to new mothers through hospitals. Now in its 42nd edition, The Baby Book has been continuously published throughout Europe. In all those years, we’ve learned a lot about kids, parents, and why reading is one of the most important things you can do with your child.</em></p>
<p><em>By reading with your child every day, making sure he has relevant and engaging books, and setting an example as a reader, you can help promote early literacy. You can prepare your child for a lifetime of learning and enjoyment</em>.&#8221;</p>
<p><a href="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/results.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-1475 alignleft" title="results" src="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/results.jpg" alt="hypothesis" width="111" height="33" /></a> Lily entered preschool this Fall and has been doing amazingly well with letter recognition and sounds, so I knew I had a reader just waiting to emerge.  The trick is finding something to motivate her to try and gaining confidence.  The Early Moments book club is a fantastic way to get Lily excited read!  When her new books arrived in the mail, her face lit up as she thumbed through the pages of her first book, &#8220;The Cat in the Hat&#8221; by Dr Seuss.</p>
<p style="text-align: left;"><a href="http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v664/bduplantis/?action=view&amp;current=IMG_4699.jpg" target="_blank"><img class="aligncenter" style="border: 0px initial initial;" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v664/bduplantis/IMG_4699.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" width="360" height="480" /></a><br />
We sat down to read it together and I encouraged her to use her letter sounds to sound out some of the simple words&#8230;.and she DID IT!  Pretty soon, she was reading this entire book&#8230;ALONE!  I can officially say that I have a reader now!  The look of pride on Lily&#8217;s face was incredible.  She is already looking forward to the next shipment of books.</p>
<p><img class="size-full wp-image-1479 alignleft" title="summary" src="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/summary.jpg" alt="summary" width="111" height="33" /></p>
<p>To see the joy on Lily&#8217;s face as she discovered a world of reading, is completely and totally worth the price of the subscription to Early Moments!  I believe that giving your child a love of reading is a gift that will last a lifetime.  The Early Moments books club is a great way to achieve this goal by giving your child new material to read on a monthly basis.  A subscription can be purchased for less than $5 a book, you have complete control over titles, and the books are delivered straight to your door!</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/SeussAb.jpg"><img class="size-thumbnail wp-image-3853 aligncenter" title="SeussAb" src="http://www.thenotsoblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/SeussAb-150x150.jpg" alt="SeussAb" width="150" height="150" /></a></p>
