In the speech therapy profession, children's books are very valuable. With them you can get a lot of language, both expressive and receptive, and children enjoy them as the most.
During one of my periodic visits to bookstores in order to renovate a private library, I found a book that I found when I read the title was more than curious. And, the book I'm talking about is titled, nothing more and nothing less, “The magical book of infinite tales” (Editorial Beascoa).
A title that when you see it for the first time leaves you thinking: "what will be the trick?". But as much as I looked and looked, I could not find how it was possible that this book in my hands was full of stories and never ended.
Finally, I decided and bought it. After all, what could I lose?
The book came inside a box in which all the typical characters of children's fantasy stories were represented. However, within the book there is no kind of illustration (I'm sorry, but I'm not going to reveal the magical secrets that surround this book).
To protect yourself from the curiosity of children (and not-so-children), the book has a lock that can only be opened with the small keys that come inside an envelope. You have to be careful, because the contents of the envelope can only be read by dads and moms.
Certainly, it is a story that if told in the right way can be truly magical, since the child will be looking forward to the moment when dad and / or mom open the book and, after saying the magic phrase, another new story emerges .
And, so that the book can create a new story every day, everyone who is present at the time of reading must say: "Magical book of illusion that a new and happy story now emerges from within."
In conclusion, “The magical book of infinite tales” It is a book intended for children, and whose main objective is to enhance children's imagination. While it is true that, if we have mastery to be able to tell a story, we will achieve many more things such as: attention (you will want to know at all times how it continues), comprehensive language (you will acquire a large amount of vocabulary), expressive language (your interventions to throughout history) ...
