Mindful Listening Instruction in the Elementary Classroom: Authentic Strategies Using Picturebooks is the solution we've all been waiting for. Academic scholars are deeply committed to improving education, and they have recognized the urgency of addressing this pervasive issue. This book offers a transformative solution by advocating for the integration of listening skill instruction into elementary classrooms, using the engaging medium of picture books. This book is a roadmap to a brighter future for our students and society. By addressing the problem of neglected listening skills and offering a compelling solution, this book equips educators, academics, and anyone invested in education with the tools to bridge the gap between the demand for proficient listeners and the current educational landscape's shortcomings.

It offers corresponding steps for planning, teaching, and assessing children’s ‘picture book talk’, multisensory learning, self-questioning skills, and early reading for meaning.
