Beyond Words: New Children’s Picture Book WHAT’S IN A WIGGLE? Considers the Importance of Body Language

Charleston, SC, July 12, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As someone who has spent a significant amount of time with both dogs and people, Alberta Daggett believes that every dog, as well as humans, possesses a unique form of self-expression. And no one taught her this lesson as well as her beloved dog Lola. Once a homeless puppy, Lola quickly became a cherished fixture in Daggett’s household and into the hearts of her family and friends through her variety of wiggles. Fortunate enough to appreciate the gift of nonverbal communication thanks to Lola, Daggett presents a debut children’s book to encourage children to recognize and interpret body language and social cues. “We all have the ability to discover this gift for ourselves,” Daggett says. “To witness this phenomenon, one only has to stop and observe.”

In “What’s in a Wiggle?,” Daggett introduces young children to Lola. Celebrating Lola’s favorite form of communication – the wiggle, Daggett’s light-hearted narrative engages readers, allowing for easy dialogue on the topic of body language. Offering a wide range of learning opportunities, from identifying nonverbal communication and emotions and recognizing shapes and colors to highlighting the joys of pet ownership, the book illustrates how anyone can express their feelings through movement that can also supplement verbal communication.

“What’s in a Wiggle?” is available for purchase on Amazon.com and BarnesandNoble.com.
