This book is an adventure for you and your children. Give yourself the opportunity to become your children's very own Papa Bombo. And together build the memories that will last forever. 'Most victorious, Papa Bombo? 'Yes. Most victorious! Because the sea is very splendiferous! And surfing those waves is most advantageous! 'Advantageous, Papa Bombo?' 'It's an amazing feeling, my little Yombo.' Let's be honest. The world is a big place. It's a big place for you. And yet it was bigger when you were just a kid. A big and marvelous and daunting place that a kid is impatiently trying to understand and turn into an ever expanding home. Confidence, therefore, will result out of exploration. But a kid can only go so far in exploration and feet are never as quick as an inquisitive mind that most of the time is out there running untamed into all directions. And what better way to explore than to go out on an expedition with the best wingman you find: A dad. Or someone akin. With a mind as inquisitive and indefatigable as that of a kid, a spring of painted words with true meaning in the white desert of noise and oblivion. Words that, instead of cold restraint, trigger the hot pursuit of excitement and discovery, as in singing the body electric! So here it is! I give you Walt Whitman in his Papa Bear form! His name is Bombo and his words are as electric as his imagination is a whirlpool of fanfare, to the delight of his little son Yombo, whom lives and loves by them. Like any kid at his age, Yombo asks question after question, for which he receives not answer after answer but adventure after adventure! Certain mom named Eleanor Mackey , PhD, child psychologist working primarily with the Obesity Institute and Children's Research Institute, on a article titled 'Why do toddlers ask why?' , written for the 'Rise and Shine' publication of the Children's National Hospital, says that 'it's a good thing when children are curious about the world and want to understand why things are the way they are.' However, it can also be exhausting for parents to field hundreds of questions day after day. So she offers advice on how to switch from the 'why' to the 'tell me more about it' mind frame to improve communication with kids and help them develop their words and expressions. This is what Bombo will do for you and your kids. It will give you joy and laughter together. While simultaneously improving your communication in both ways, using the language experience approach of listening, speaking, reading and writing Bombo's fanciful words, in the same way little Yombo does. One great lesson Bombo teaches us is NOT TO FEAR BIG WORDS! Reading this tale will feel like so much fun while facilitating the Phonetic Adoption of Complex Words that will inspire your kids' minds to seek meaning, and will find themselves enjoying the elevation that comes with using elegant language in a natural way. In a world that has grown too fond of comfort, where the acquisition of higher thought processes no longer seems a priority, we must once again raise the bar to EXCELSIOR! A standard of excellence must once again become the new normal if we want to teach superior human qualities and mental skills to our kids. For, in the words of 'The Prophet' , by Kahlil Gibran, 'they inhabit the House of the Future, which we ourselves cannot see, even in our dreams'. May your time be most victorious, Papa Bombo.
