"Reading is very important to every child. Even children who cannot read yet benefit from books. When you read to a young child they become more familiar with books and the alphabet. Reading time is also a great time to bond with your child. It also gives you a chance to see what kind of books your child likes. Children that are read to at home or encouraged to read during their free time, begin to develop a love for reading. There are several other reasons why reading is important. For example, it helps to builds problem-solving skills, imaginations, and introduces many topics to children."
