Rhymers are readers.  If you want to guarantee your child will be a good reader, then teach them to recite small ditties and poems.  Repetition, which will help the child learn but also to anticipate what will come next.Even little kids, or those who have special needs respond to rhythm and tone before they understand language. They gain language skills and vocabulary as you talk, sing and read about the pretend people in the rhyme.This is a darling little book that will bond parent and child.  Anything that allows for imagination and storytelling is doing much more than entertaining.Judy Helm Wright, author of 77 Ways to Parent series.
