Experts Agree:
“Reading regularly with young children stimulates optimal patterns of brain development and strengthens parent-child relationships at a critical time in child development, which, in turn, builds language, literacy, and social-emotional skills that last a lifetime.”
American Academy of Pediatrics
“Parents don't have to be good readers to give their child a strong reading foundation. Young children benefit by talking about pictures, turning pages, and snuggling close. Daily time with books fosters a nurturing relationship that lays the groundwork for raising a happy, confident child!”
