Join the world of balloons, pancakes, and musical instruments—just a few items to help improve early literacy in the library, the classroom, and at home. Literacy-builders covered range from music and instruments to magnetic letters, alphabet beads, and food. Literacy is a popular topic of discussion among librarians. Especially important is "early literacy," what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read and write. In this book, experienced librarians Kathy Barco and Melanie Borski-Howard share hands-on techniques that they have used to successfully promote early literacy and encourage family involvement. Storytime and Beyond teaches readers how to use "literacy doodads"—inexpensive props that add excitement to storytimes and can be used outside the library or classroom—to enhance the basic components of any early literacy program: talking, singing, reading, writing, and playing. Many of the doodads can be created as family do-it-yourself projects, and some can be adapted to work with non-readers of any age. Instruments can also be a great way to get children's attention and teach literacy skills, whether it's a drum to beat while reading a story or a maraca for children to shake during a song, and lesson plans for musical storytimes address how to use rhythm, singing, and dancing to make early literacy fun.

At the young age of seventeen, Peter Castellano is forced to confront an unbearable reality since the only companion he could confide in, his father Ivan, has been killed in strange circumstances. In search of a new beginning, Peter, together with his mother Damaris, move to a remote villa, a villa previously owned by the son of the Collins, Edgar, a mysterious man with prophetic abilities. Every house has its story, but what lies hidden in this house is a mystery that pleads to be unravelled. As sudden curiosity to explore the dwelling grows, Peter, together with the girl he had always wished for, Stephanie, are lured beneath the villa where they make a remarkable discovery - a map of immense value. As the rush to get to the end of the trail heightens, they are led into a seemingly never-ending sequel of exploration, mystery and suspense when unexpectedly, they understand that the true motive behind the map's existence is its use as a guide and a tool to change the course of Edgar's premonition - a presentiment that sheds light on the mystery underlying Ivan's murder. But is it too late? While jealousy, rage and revenge prevent the couple from putting an end to the mystery behind the building of events, are they really prepared to face the truth that they unravel? And what really lies at the end of it all? Join this pulse-raising adventure packed with intrigue, and relish a new dimension of book experience in the making!
