It is demonstrated that reading children's books aloud potty help pave the way to your child's ultimate success. Picture books are riviting for young readers who are just getting started. Following are a few hints to help you select children's books and picture books that are learning-oriented as well as enjoyable.
1. Understand the kinds of books or subjects your child has liked in the past as well as the kinds of characters, situations and topics he or she might relate to or find interesting. 2. Ask friends, relatives and people you trust what books their kids read. 3. Recall books you read as a child and consider whether they are compelling for your child. 4. Ask your librarian to give you a list of books. 5. Look at books awarded Caldecott, Newberry, and Coretta Scott King prizes. 6. Vary your selection and try different genres to hold your child's interest. 7. Make sure that the stories and illustrations present different issues in positive ways..
