Reading regularly is so important to a Childs development. My son loves to memories what I read and the pretend read by saying it back as he flips through the book. It’s real cute. My book suggestion is “In the Cows Backyard” by Alma Flor Ada. It has many animal sounds in it which not only help children to learn the sounds but also makes it real fun for the child. With the bright colorful pages, this book is a winner for any child. Happy reading!
