Anchored Anew Publishing, LLC aims to publish children's books with meaning and lifelong purpose with the hopes of children retaining the message over into adulthood. Anchored H.E.L.P. books focus on four pillars: Health, Esteem, Literacy, and Positive Perspective-Taking. We commit to our books supporting one or more of these pillars through rhyme, relatability, and relevance. 

​

The use of rhyme in childhood literacy has several beneficial effects:

​

1. Phonemic Awareness: Rhymes help children to identify and manipulate sounds within words. By listening to and producing rhymes, children become more attuned to the sounds of language, which is a crucial skill for learning to read and write.

2. Memory and Recall: Rhymes are often catchy and memorable, making them easier for children to remember. This aids in vocabulary acquisition and retention as children can recall rhyming words more easily.

3. Language Development: Rhymes expose children to a variety of words and language structures. Through exposure to rhymes, children expand their vocabulary and develop a deeper understanding of language patterns and syntax.

4. Reading Fluency: Reading rhyming texts helps children develop fluency in reading. Rhymes provide a predictable pattern that assists children in predicting words and phrases, thus improving their reading speed and comprehension.

5. Motivation and Engagement: Rhymes are inherently fun and engaging for children. The enjoyment derived from rhyming activities encourages children to engage with literacy materials more eagerly, fostering a positive attitude towards reading and learning.
