And that's because we adore everything about reading and books. We love their wonderful payoff - books can help you talk more easily with your child about a universe of topics and help your child gain perspective, think critically, explore feelings, try new things and discover facts. We love the magic that unfolds when a child learns to read; suddenly letters are no longer symbols and a child sees the world with new eyes, new meaning and new purpose. We love the physical togetherness that reading with a child brings. That closeness is a gift - and why Santa's sleigh is typically filled with sacks of books in our homes! Below are six books we’re personally giving (more curated titles and learning toys in our [Pocket Gift List]( and here's six important facts about childhood reading that we think are worth knowing (from the authors of How to Raise a Reader, Pamela Paul and Maria Russo): - Fill your home with plenty of books. Make book temptation a thing around your home, and visit the library early and often. Studies show that what correlates most with literacy is being surrounded by plenty of books. - Every child learns to read at their own pace. The age at which your child learns to read does not affect how well or how much they eventually read as an adult. - Re-reading a favorite book is fabulous. Repetition is a good thing and has proven to have cognitive and emotional benefits. - Visual books are real books and visual literacy is important. They can offer rich stories and well-developed characters, and are enjoyable at all developmental ages. - Intentionally choose diverse books. This includes diversity in perspectives, in narratives, in ethnicities, in family structures, in protagonists, in authors, in illustrators, in cultural contexts, etc. Exposing your child to diversity in books is a great launching pad for deeper conversations and for discovering what your child knows and doesn't know. - Teach your child to love reading. - Model, model, model - "If you want to raise a reader, be a reader." Your own interest and excitement about books sends the strongest positive message. Make time and space to read: i) for yourself; and ii) with your child (even if you think they are not listening, they are absorbing the experience). - Make asking your child, "What are you reading?" a lovely habit. Encourage them to ask you the same question. P.S. If you're enjoying our [Pocket Gift List,]( please share it with your friends, family, work colleagues - everyone!
