"Next to hugging and talking to children, reading aloud is the greatest gift we can give them. Beyond the positive role modeling and the physical bonding that takes place, we are stimulating imagination, enriching vocabulary, building listening skills, and whetting an appetite for a love of reading." - Jim Trelease, author of The Read Aloud Handbook
