First, we share literature with children because it is FUN. Reading for enjoyment is critical for children. They should be provided time to read so that they can experience other worlds and use their imaginations. Creating a lifelong reader is begins with a love for reading. We also share literature with children because it aids in the aquisition of language and language development. Just by reading twenty minutes everyday, students will be exposed to 1,800,00 words per year and will result in scoring in the 90th percentile on standardized tests. By reading books, children alse develop empathy. Stories can educate feelings and offer children a lesson in human behavior. Sharing literature with children supports lifelong readers, develops the imagination, and transmits culture.
