Usborne Books at Home
Are The Best!
About 20 years ago, a British man named Peter Usborne decided that educational, non-fiction books would need to change in order to compete with television, comics and now sony's and nintendo's. He hired educational experts to oversee both content and style of the books, and demanded that the books entice the children to learn. Peter Usborne believed that a book should not only satisfy the child's interest, but arouse it. The magic of Usborne Books is that they make both reading and learning fun and not boring or an intimating experience. Peter Usborne set out to break down a child's resistance to reading and learning at home. These books are so well organized that little children truly absorb and recall much of the vast amout of information presented in them.
Usborne books are fascinating, lavishly illustrated books written with humor, surprise, and drama. They incorporate activities and puzzles to challenge a child's observation and intelligence! Their superb print quality, well-presented graphics, high ratio of pictures to text, short magazine-like format, unique detail, and vibrant color set Usborne books apart from anything yet produced, especially at the prices offered.
