Some of my greatest memories for my sister and I are when my parents would read to us every night. This started back before I could remember and my parents would let us each chose a story to be read after we were tucked into bed. Now that we are both older my sister and I are avid readers and as a family when one of us finds a great book we share it with each other. Recently my mom, dad, sister and I all read the Hunger Games. I credit my parents effort to read to us each night to my love for reading. I have been able to see how important reading aloud is for a child. It allows for the child to create a special relationship with books. I was just home visiting and decided to go through our old children's books to see if there were any that I could use for this next semester and it was like looking through an old picture album. Each book had a special memory like the Bernstein Bears, and old Dr. Seuss books. Reading Aloud can make reading fun for students, the Public Library has different read aloud programs that children can attend and the read aloud website is full of helpful tips. http://www.readaloud.org/
