Though it will take your child years to learn how to read a book himself, he is ready to hear you read to him from almost the beginning of his life.

Reading has the power to expand and stretch the mind in new directions, allowing for the development of abstract thought and deeper understanding of life.

As a speech-language pathologist I look at language and language development through a model based on the work by Lois Bloom.

One of my favorite ways to “read” with children is with wordless picture books. You may ask, ‘how do you read a wordless picture book’?
