My first and foremost important role in my life is mom. However, being a teacher is still a very important role that stays with me even though I am not in the classroom anymore! My mother instilled the love of reading in my life probably when we were begging for her to read my brother and I 6 books instead of 5 at bedtime. Reading at bedtime was an everyday occurrence, just as it is at my house. I can't stress enough the importance of reading to your child. It improves your child's IQ and even more so if your children see you reading (especially Dad!)!!! It makes sense if you think about it. If all these things are happening in the home, then there is a definite LOVE of reading!
So, when Julie contacted me from Usborne Books & More and wanted to do a book set giveaway, I was thrilled! To me, there may not be a better gift you can give you child!
