Helping Your Child Read

"There are worse crimes than burning books.
One of them is not reading them."

 Joseph Brodsky
      Reading is critical to your child's success in school and in life.  Why is reading so important?  Imagine that your child's education is a marathon.  It's long, complicated, and full of twists and turns.  Now imagine that reading is the starting block.  Without the ability to read, the race can't even begin.  If he or she cannot read well, your child will likely struggle to succeed in school.
