New children’s books on sale

Imagine That

Imagine That is written for younger kids aged 3-6. One great thing about this

book is that it uses real-life examples that younger children can understand easily.

These examples show the magic, mystery and power within nature and within

every one of us. 不积跬步无以至千里，不积小流无以成江海！ The Wave

The Wave is a children’s story and it’s also a clear message to teens and adults

that there is usually more to life than we see with our eyes. It also helps plant an

early seed in children’s minds that spirituality (灵性) isn’t just something we seek

or find, but it’s a part of us all the time and every place—all we need to do is

become aware. This book is probably better suited for older children, perhaps aged

5-10, as it talks about spiritual things.

Kiss of a Dolphin

Kiss of a Dolphin is a very touching story. This story is actually a series of

stories about the “Dreams for Kids” organization.

At first, the organization helps children in Chicago, but then it becomes an

organization helping all poor kids. Just as importantly, this book is about all of the

volunteers and the gifts that they receive as they help these kids realize their

dreams. Also, its beautiful language can be enjoyed by children over 12 years old.

21. What is great about Imagine That according to the writer?

A. It is written specially for older children.

B. It lists examples children can understand easily.

C. There are many stories about magic and mystery.

D. It is about something that we cannot experience.

22. The Wave is suitable for older children because of ______.

A. its difficult language B. the scientific topic

C. its deep meaning D. the length of the story

23. What is Kiss of a Dolphin mainly about?

A. A story about a child and a dolphin.

B. An organization named “Dreams for Kids”.

C. A touching story of a poor child.

D. A volunteer who helps a lot of poor children.

24. How do people probably feel after reading Kiss of a Dolphin?

A. Sad B. Moved. C. Relaxed. D. Curious.
