Why are books important.......


§  Sitting down with a book provides children with a time for quiet and calmness in their busy lives
§  Stories can stimulate imagination and play
§  Reading provides parents with more opportunities to bond with their children
§  Stories provoke curiosity and discussion
§  Books provides inspiration, thought and reflection
§  Picture books help readers to develop an appreciation for art and writing
§  Reading a variety of books exposes children to a wide range of language features and vocabulary
§  Listening to stories assists in the development of literacy skills and language development
§  Exposure to books contributes to the understanding of print concepts (eg. left to right, top to bottom)

§  Books and stories fill a child’s mind with knowledge
