“If every parent understood the huge educational benefits and intense happiness brought about by reading aloud to their children, and if every parent- and every adult caring for a child-read aloud a minimum of three stories a day to the children in our lives, we could probably wipe out illiteracy within one generation.” IfsChildrenStoriesThreeReadingParentOur LivesGenerationsHugeBenefitsUnderstoodAdultsEducationalCaringIntenseMinimumWipeIlliteracyReading Aloud Author:Mem Fox
