Many people might say, “in kindergarten or first grade.” But\u003cbr\u003eresearchers have told us something very important.

Children can start down the road to becoming\u003cbr\u003ereaders from the day they are born.\u003cbr\u003eVery early, children begin to learn about spoken language when they hear their family\u003cbr\u003emembers talking, laughing, and singing, and when they respond to all of the sounds that fill\u003cbr\u003etheir world. They begin to understand written language when they hear adults read stories to\u003cbr\u003ethem and see adults reading newspapers, magazines, and books for themselves. These early\u003cbr\u003eexperiences with spoken and written language set the stage for children to become\u003cbr\u003esuccessful readers and writers.\u003cbr\u003eMothers, fathers, grandparents, and caregivers, this booklet is for you.
