Raising A Reader & Storyteller
Book Therapy's Bijal Shah, in collaboration with Sunita Shah of The Jai Jais, brings this 8-episode podcast on raising a reader and developing a storyteller. Over eight episodes, we share tips and techniques on developing young readers' love for literature through acquiring reading skills, vocabulary, developing their imagination and learning to tell a story. We also discuss the benefits of reading on mental well-being through the practice of children's bibliotherapy. Everything we share is taken from our own personal experiences as a bibliotherapist, speech and language therapist and as authors.As part of this podcast launch we'd also like to offer 10% off using discount code TENPERCENT on our Bibliotherapy, Literature & Mental Health course, that guides parents, teachers and mental health professionals on using bibliotherapy tools and techniques with children for mental well-being.
