Sara Melessky will be here representing Usborne Books, exciting and engaging educational books for children from newborns through adulthood. Bright, colorful, and fun titles cover a wide variety of subjects.

“Reading is the baseline for all levels of education and skills. It’s so important for children to read and love to read,” wrote Sara. “I started with some cloth books for my baby daughter — fun, brightly-colored books with beads on them. These books doubled as rattles and were easy for me to throw in with the laundry to wash them. Now, she loves the graphics and stories of the board and noise books.”

Sara talks more about Usborne Books here on Facebook.
