A child's tastes for reading and the
style of books he or she learns to admire
are governed largely by the parents.
Nearly all children enjoy having some
one read to them. Now. If before they
can peruse interesting books for them
selves their taste becomes cultivated
through the selections they hear. there

astray into those bypaths of literature
that are not healthful, mind invigor.
