Overview

Inspired by Bill Martin Jr.'s friendship and writing, Lee Jenkins wrote the day by day account of Joshua and the historical battle of Jericho. Parents who have read Brown Bear, Brown Bear and Chicka, Chicka, Boom, Boom to their children will recognize the influence Bill Martin Jr. had on Lee Jenkins' writing. The aim of the Bible Patterns for Young Readers series is to make learning to read so joyful and painless that children forget how they learned to read, but the stories so powerful they are remembered for life. Through the reading of A Week with Joshua: The Battle of Jericho children learn the days of the week, laugh at the Jim Chansler 7 cartoon priests blowing their trumpets, search for the slight change made to Jericho each day, enjoy the around and around and around climaxed by the walls tumbling down, and begin to understand that God has surprising plans for all of us.

Author Information

Lee Jenkins' most recent education book is entitled How to Create a Perfect School: Maintain Students' Motivation and Love of Learning from Kindergarten through 12th Grade. He describes the major education habits that destroy kids love of learning and replacements for each of these inherited practices. Unfortunately, the loss of the intrinsic desire to learn for far too many children, begins with school reading programs. This need not occur. With Lee's early readers, both Bible and Aesop, parents and teachers together can make learning to read so joyful that kids forget how they learned to read. Concurrently, the stories can be so powerful they are remembered for life. Lee Jenkins is a career public school educator who provides staff development and keynotes based upon his process described in How to Create a Perfect School. He works with public, charter and Christian (Protestant and Catholic) schools delivering the same replacements for poor inherited schooling habits.
