What inspired the series?
While working with preschool children, Lisa realized there was a need for books that are not just fun, but that also engage children. Her books are designed with language development in mind. Lisa also observed a lot of caregivers who did a great job of reading books to children, but didn’t understand how to engage their children in the books and encourage language development. The Dooley Bear books will not only make your children laugh, but also help develop the necessary language skills they need to succeed in school.
"As an early childhood educator, I'm always looking for simple, creative, and engaging ways to teach my students. The Dooley Bear series is a great way to introduce children to different countries, cultures, and customs without them even realizing how much they're learning! Dooley Bear is silly and fun, and my students absolutely adore him. We can't wait to see where Dooley Bear goes next!"
Cathy Keturatana, B.A.E., M. Ed. - Teacher/Parent Phoenix, Arizona, USA
