Childcare Provider Creates Colorful Picture Book of Poems Just for Young Children
Author hopes every young reader or their guardian can get access to this book
LANCASTER, CALIF. – AUGUST 08, 2022 – In “I Love Being a Kid,” by R. Hughes, readers are presented with a collection of poems and brightly colored illustrations created just for youngsters. A longtime early childcare provider, Hughes used her experience to craft situations that would be relatable to children, in hopes they will have a positive effect. The book consists of 20 short scenarios created for kids, in reaction to COVID. The pandemic was a difficult time for children, and Hughes wanted them to know that someone was thinking of the simplicity of just being a kid and cared enough to write about them.
“Some of my greatest joys are watching children laugh and helping them grow in a safe, healthy, loving and nurturing environment”, said Hughes. “I hope this book will help to increase a child’s awareness that a fun-filled, wholesome book can also be a meaningful experience.”

“I Love Being a Kid” explores kids interacting with each other and their surroundings, at and away from home.
“It represents a world without all the electronics, techie stuff, pressures, bullies, expectations, perfections, rush hour, competitions, complications, changes, and disappointments,” said Hughes. “Just having fun and expressing it with a smile and laughter. Hopefully this book reminds everyone that kids have a positive impact in the world because a smile is still contagious, and laughter does the heart good.”
