“Books aren’t just made of words. They are filled with places to visit and people to meet” - Anonymous.

 

Reading is one of the most important and fulfilling means to master the tool of language. Reading at an early age not only helps children learn new vocabulary and ways to express themselves; but also teaches new concepts, allows them to better understand emotions, and enhances their imagination. Reading time is a beautiful ritual that allows parents and children to connect and unwind.
