"Designing Spaces" Holiday Show to Feature the Gift of Reading with Random House Children’s Books

Nov. 4, 2011 - PRLog -- Random House Children’s Books, the world’s largest English-language children’s trade book publisher recently completed filming for O2 Media’s popular TV show “Designing Spaces.”  The segment, which features Chip Gibson, President and Publisher of Random House Children’s Books, will air as part of the show’s “Holiday Spaces” segment in November on Lifetime Television.  Gibson talks about their wide variety of books that appeal to everyone from toddlers to teens.

Creating books for toddlers through young adult readers, in all formats from board books to activity books to picture books and novels, the imprints of Random House Children’s Books bring together award-winning authors and illustrators, world-famous franchise characters, and multimillion-copy series.

“Appearing on “Designing Spaces” is a great opportunity to show viewers how reading can be a wonderful way to bring families together, especially during the holiday season.  It can also bridge the gap between generations by having grandparents read stories to the grandkids,” says Gibson.

“Reading is a low cost activity that is both important and priceless,” he adds.  “It also introduces toddlers and preschoolers to the concepts of reading as they learn the alphabet and how to construct a word and sentence, whereas older kids sharpen reading skills.”

The company’s award-winning web site, kids@random (www.randomhouse.com/kids), offers an array of materials and activities free of charge for children, teens, parents, and educators.  For more information, visit http://www.randomhouse.com.
