Eric T Litvin was a former teacher and it was a desire to change the instructional method for young children that led him to come up with a unique musical approach for his writings. His experience taught him that children studying in a Kindergarten school took strong interest in reading books. They not only cherished the experience of reading a book but often loved them as much as they loved their toys. However, by the time these children reached their third grade, they not only lost their interest in reading books but also grew nervous and apprehensive, even bored. This made Eric T Litvin think about the things that changed within these years that made the children lose their passion in reading books. He understood that what was needed here is a change in the way children were encouraged to read books. By changing the method of instructions meted out to children, it can be possible to trigger their interest in reading books once again.

It was this inner realization that encouraged him to introduce music and greater interactivity into the method of instruction used for educating young children. By developing a one of a kind musical approach for early literacy, he has helped thousands of children to learn to read as well as develop a strong love for books. This is a multi-learning approach that lies at the core of all books ever written by Eric Litvin.
