Childrens Books Online
For a child, there's no gift you can offer that will bring more joy than the gift of reading. A love of reading will last a lifetime, bringing him or her years of adventure, learning, and fun. Through books, children can explore faraway lands and learn to understand others. As with so many other things, a love of reading is passed down through generations. Reading to your child is key. Even an infant will enjoy being propped up on your lap while you hold a book in front of her. Let your baby look at bright pictures while you talk to her about them. She'll learn to associate books with the pleasure of hearing your voice and being close to you. As your child grows, the bedtime story becomes ever more important. From the simplest picture books to story books and then chapter books, each step brings your child closer to that magic moment when he can read for himself. Even then, though, many experts suggest that you keep reading to him, especially at bedtime, when it is a calming transition to sleep. Just reading to your child is not enough, though. If your child sees you reading for pleasure, if you make it clear that you value books, if you delight in giving and receiving books as gifts, it's much more likely your child will grow up to love books, too.
