Abstract

Using books as an ally will enrich a child's life!

For both children who love books and those who aren't so keen on them.
Reading books will help them overcome obstacles and doubts they may face in the future.

The benefits of books go beyond making them smarter. They also develop a sense of inquiry, intellectual curiosity, compassion, and the ability to communicate with friends and the adults around them. This book teaches a scientifically based reading method that effortlessly reaps the benefits of reading!
