Diane Speicher believes the moving ones carry a long lasting message that will stay with your child for the future, like Brighton: One Star's Journey to Shine. It is proven that reading children's books aloud potty help pave the way to your child's ultimate success. Picture books are enjoyable for elementary readers who are just starting their journey. Following are a few tips to help you choose children's books and picture books that are learning-oriented as well as enjoyable.

Ask friends, relatives and people you trust what books their youngsters read. 3. Remember books you read as a child and consider whether they are right for your child. 4. Ask your librarian to recommend books. 5. Look at books awarded Caldecott, Newberry, and Coretta Scott King awards. 6. Vary your suggestions and try different genres to hold your child's interest. 7. Make sure that the stories and illustrations present different issues in positive ways..
