Early Literacy with Nemours BrightStart!

Literacy development begins from the first days of a child's life. That's why very young children need ongoing opportunities to set the stage for skills like oral language, letter knowledge, phonological awareness and beginning writing, which predict reading success.

First Book has collaborated with Nemours BrightStart! to present this collection of books and resources for children ages 0-5 and their caregivers. Each book in this section is pared with a FREE downloadable resource that equips educators and parents with tips and activities to reinforce pre-reading skills for young children.

Nemours BrightStart! is committed to closing the reading readiness achievement gap that exists for far too many of our nation's children. By incorporating scientific evidence and expertise from the fields of child health, education, neuroscience, prevention science, child development and reading disorders, they design unique and highly effective tools and training that consistently yield life-changing results.
