Books are the basis of all knowledge and a love of reading
and the written word can lead both child and parent on wonderful voyages of
discovery. For no parent can possibly know the answers to the myriad of diverse
questions that children ask when learning about the world, but if you can read
it is possible to find out anything you wish to know, whether at your local
library or on the internet. I remember a young relative asking her mother why
the sky was blue and their joint discovery of the answer to that question and
the pleasure that the search gave to both mother and child.

Books affect children in many different ways. Early exposure
to books and being read to from a very young age have been shown in countless
educational research studies to lead to increased concentration in school, a
wider vocabulary, an enquiring mind and a greater ability to learn. Children
are imaginative creatures and stories feed this imagination which is essential
to mental and emotional development. A good imagination is necessary for
scientists, engineers, poets, authors, politicians, mathematicians, scientists,
and any other career.
Reading to children definitely affects children's growth and development.
Through books, children learn languages. They listen to the words and
ultimately learn their vocabulary. Children also develop their imagination when
looking through picture books and coming up with stories of their own. Books
are essential for children's development. Therefore, it is important for
parents to spend time reading to their children.
Electronic books are quickly becoming more prominent in the
field of education because of their advantages in over traditional printed text
books. As more electronic textbooks are produced and utilized in best schools, we must investigate how
useful and effective they are in teaching young children the important skills
they need for higher learning. Research has shown that when used as a teaching
supplement, electronic books have a positive impact on learning. They can be
valuable in helping children with their early literacy development, reading
comprehension and language development.
The effect that books have on children is reflected in as
many different ways as there are children, but they can be profound and last a
lifetime. I still believe that it’s not just what you read, but how you share
it with a child that makes the difference. However, it’s clear that the type of
book really can influence how you share it with your child and how she or he
will participate.
