Customer Reviews

Ask Me

Gets our children talking about what's happening in their lives. We ask questions from this book at our dinner table.

conversation starter for all ages

I have borrowed this book from our local library twice and will be purchasing it. My three boys, 2nd-5th grade, love this book. During dinner we ask a question and all discuss it. It is a great conversation starter. One question can last all dinner!

Olivia

My daughter and I love this book. She's 4 years old and I am amazed at the level of conversation we have using this book. Asking her the inquisitive questions brings some of the most hysterical answers from her. You will be amazed at what your learn about your child from such a simple action of "Asking".

a great parent-child conversation starter

Each page of "Ask Me" has a question and a funny, intriguing, or funky picture to go with it. The idea is simply to turn to a page that you and your child like, and talk about it. Questions are things like: What makes you laugh? What makes you really mad? What will you keep forever? What do you put on to look good? The real magic of using a book like this is having both the parents AND the children answer the questions. I use this in a school setting with first and second graders and their parents, and they LOVE it. The pictures really make this book. I would highly recommend this book to parents who are looking for entertaining ways to connect with their kids.
