Birthdays are a lot of fun, especially when it is your birthday, and especially when you are going to be four years old! Any four year old will clearly tell you when you are four you can do just about anything! The little girl in this story is very excited about becoming four, and when Penelope Dyan asked what one little girl who was turning four wanted for HER birthday, she asked Dyan to write a book about being FOUR! Not only did award winning author, attorney and former teacher, Penelope Dyan do that, she also made a very special video that you can see on YouTube called Today I Am 4! that goes right along with this book, and will be certain to make your little one giggle and smile. The thing to remember about birthdays is that we always have another one coming, so if your child is younger or older than four, you might want to look at some of Penelope Dyan’s other books about birthdays! In fact, Dyan’s book, Happy Birthday, A Book About Birthdays, Dreams And Wishes,
is suitable for all ages because it has no age on it–AND it was chosen by the UK Arts Council to be put on display in the Saison Poetry Library on the fifth floor of the Royal Exhibit Hall at Southbank Centre, —AND this was her second children’s book given that honor because Ben’s Big Adventure… was her first book to be honored. So laugh, have fun, enjoy and look for the first ‘Happy Birthday’ video starring Betty Boop.
