The Greatness of Disney Publishing




(My 2 year old daughter's homemade birthday cake)

Like many parents I know, my life revolves around many things Disney. The shows I watch, the toys I buy, the birthday cakes I’ve baked and lately, the books I am reading to my children all consist of Minnie, Miles, Sheriff Callie, Peso or Henry. Disney publishing knows how to give emerging readers books they WANT to read in their World of Reading Easy Readers and they give every young child the best bedtime stories in their 5-Minute Series.

World of Reading
Whether your child is in Pre-K and learning sight words or is in first grade and they read on their own, these books should be in everyone’s collection. The stories are all based on the television episodes which makes each story easy to understand and makes a child a more confident reader. Words like “griffin” in a Sofia the First story or “hologram” in a Miles From Tomorrowland book will not seem so foreign in context since many of the kids reading the stories have seen the episode (or you can show the child the episode after reading the story and watch those new words come to life). The World of Reading Books are broken down into 4 levels ranging from Pre-K to Third grade and includes the Lexile level for reference. Whether your young reader loves Sheriff Callie’s Wild West or Star Wars, there is definitely a World of Reading reader waiting for them!

 

5 Minute Series
When my children want to continue watching television after screen time is over, we often open 5-Minute Disney Junior Stories to keep the television characters alive. The book has 12 stories, all episodes of Doc McStuffins, Minnie and Sofia the First that my kids love to hear over and over again. My Minnie lover also owns 5 Minute Minnie Tales – 12 Minnie adventures filled with everyone’s favorite Mickey Mouse Clubhouse Characters. Have a Frozen fan? There’s a 5-minute book for her! Pixar, Princess or Marvel characters more your speed? There are 5-minute books for those enthusiasts too. These are great books to have in your Disney collection, and I guarantee there will be more than story shared at a sitting!


Get the most out of the last few weeks of summer vacation and log those summer reading hours with books your kids will actually enjoy sitting and reading over and over. Disney truly knows how to make every childhood experience magical!
