You should never hide behind a wall, because that means you aren't interacting with others. And sometimes a wall isn't a physical wall, it is the wall you built up yourself; and that wall exists right there in your heart. Walls separate people, open spaces and bridges unite people. And while this may seem like a very difficult concept to understand, the elephant and the monkey and all of the other familiar Penelope Dyan Dyan characters are right here in this book to help you understand the problems you can have, and will have, if you build a wall inside of your heart! This 'learn to read' book, filled with word repetition, word recognition and rhyme, and written and illustrated by award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan, is meant to get a kid thinking as he or she has fun practicing reading skills and building his or her reading vocabulary. There is also a fun, free music video that goes along with this book that a kid can watch on Bellissimavideo's YouTube channel where you can have even more learning fun! After all, learning should always be fun!
