Reading A Story

My daughter read tonight's bedtime story. She read How Much, How Many, How Far, How Heavy, How Long, How Tall Is 1000? by Helen Nolan and Tracy Walker. My daughter just volunteered to read for us. This was not the first time. She reads every now and then. Every time she does, I am very happy because it tells me she likes to read and is not afraid to read in front of others. I believe that all children should be given the opportunity to learn to read and to read often. Reading helps them learn, grow, and develop. So kids--read, read, and read some more.
