Albert Einstein has been quoted to have said that creativity is intelligence having fun, and that imagination is more important than knowledge. Creativity is the highest form of intelligence because it goes beyond knowledge recall and extends into knowledge creation. Did you know those creative young children who use their imagination are more effective, resourceful, resilient, and confident than their peers? Creative children are also better equipped to overcome obstacles and navigate life changes.
This book makes the perfect gift for creative little boys and girls, teachers, librarians, and parents raising bilingual and multilingual kids. Perfect for all children ages 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, and up, depending on their fluency level in the target language. Most suitable for grade 1, grade, 2, and grade 3, and parents and Serbian language teachers who appreciate a well-written and beautifully illustrated bilingual book. The use of large fonts and a white background for the text make it ideal for early readers.
